Any check engine lights? After it is warmed up does it run perfect? Have you checked the fuel pressure? You can adjust the idle by turning the screw on the TB. Need more info...

You should still be able to figure out the CEL code by using a scantool. Just take it to a store like autozone/shucks/checkers/napa, and they can usually scan it for you.

I don't see why it wouldn't be readable, unless some funky wiring has been done. Anyone able to confirm that an OBD2 JDM ecu can be read with a scantool?

Its not worth it, you just jump the ECU with a paperclip. Thats basically free.

long blink = 10, short blink = 1


long blink long blink short blink short blink short blink...space....long blink short blink short blink...space...

that would be code 23 and code 12.

random codes used just for example.

oh, i'm just saying that a scanner will definitely not work with a JDM ecu. you need to do the code pull process that i detailed ; )

Unless you plan on boosting or running nitrous and/or need data logging, get an S100

You don't even have a Type R, do you? My guess is you have a normal Integra with a swapped JDM ITR motor.

If that's the case, then you need to post in a forum that caters to JDM swaps, such as the hybrid forum.
