The DBW is a sensor. if you change to the cable you may have to ground out the sensor wire so as to not throw of the ECU. Now assuming your adventure for the DBW fix is the talk of a person who wants to mod the ride, I say go for flashpro. It helps a lot with the throttle response and as you mod, it can do so much more for you. Just a lil something to think about.

Heres a lil trick. Buy a Cobb Access Port of somebody for cheap as hell. Then take advantage of the Hondata Trade deal and give them the Cobb and $130. If you play it right, you may spend about 4-5 hundred.

Quoted.

There are many supporters and vendors of Hondata on this forum, including myself. You're better off discussing schemes like this via PM instead of displaying it to the whole forum.
