ok guys , im new to k-series, and this guy just offered a k series eg hatch, it has a k24 block k20 a2 head, and he says the only thing he doesnt have is kpro, am i able to use a stock ecu to use this setup in a eg? let me know .. the faster the response the better..

 

You would have many running issues, with a stock ECU.

 

do explain please..

 

im a noob, but i look at this situation similar to that of a b20 vtec..but you need kseries gurus to help you out man..

 

alright , well anybody that can help lend a hand.

 

A stock ecu is from an RSX . . . Think of how the fuel system is, in an Rsx that should give an inkling into why you shouldnt do it. You can get it to run on the stock ecu but it wouldnt be worth it in my eyes.

If the price is good enough for the build then just used the stock ecu as a core and send it to hondata to get a kpro.

Dont over complicate things

 

Send the stock ECU to Hondata for K-Pro. You will absolutely need it if you want the car to run properly, no doubt about it.

 

ok, and what is the charge if i have the core? i can only spend 750$

 

I think retail if you have the core is approx. $1,000, plus the cost of having the car tuned somewhere.

 

ahh man, this sucks.

 

where are you located

 

fort myers,florida idk, if you know 88ED8 but he is a friend of mine , and we are both going to school for ase certification.

 

bump, can you guys help me out ? idk what to do.

 

You can see if someone with K-Pro is doing a partout, you could probably pick it up cheaper and just exchange them for the stock core.

 

do you know of anyone that has one , that they are parting out?

 

This is not the place for sales. Check the Marketplace.

 

You will be fine with a stock rsx-s ecu as long as the immobilizer is disabled. You will not be able to beat on the car until you have the kpro in the car though. A stock rsx-s ecu will not add enough fuel for the car and will hinder performance.

 

kpro and tune or no go

 

Call Jeff Evans @ Evans Tuning or go to evans-tuning.com
He has the best prices on kpro

 

he wants 900 and the ecu , someone local said 800$ the ecu, +the shipping to get to hondata and back.
