Default K swap Problem - Disable the immoblizer

Hey all honda technicians,

I am going to do a K swap during the summer.
However, i just notice there will be a problem of my swap: Immobilizer.

Because of the USDM K20 ECU, it is come with the stock immobilizer,
so after i swap, my car will not start for sure.

So i am wonder do I have any other alternative; other then getting a expensive Kpro ecu or a rare JDM ecu?

Would it work if i just refresh the stock ecu with hondata reprogram?

Thanks,
Patpat.
