Which ones? There are more than one ECU that runs in ether of those chassis. PT3, PT6, P0B, P0A, OBD1 or OBD2.

CD7 ECUs are programed to run ether an OBD1 or OBD2 non VTEC F22B2 or VTEC F22B1 engine. The CB7 ECUs are programed to run one of the Non VTEC OBD1 F22A1, A4 or A6 engines. What differences are between them really depends on what specific ECU you are referring to. There are a few different F22A & F22B ECUs out there.

You need to be more specific with your question.

Why do you want to know the differences? Are you doing a swap or looking for a new ECU.....

Don't bother, Nether the CD or the CB ECUs can be chipped to give you any real gains. Also, any chipped ECU going for $30 bucks you should really steer clear of.

Most reliably chipped ECU's that are tuned will go for between $150-$300. On the odd occasion you might be able to find a chipped one for $100.

With a 1996 (OBD2) Non VTEC F22B2 Accord you would be looking for an OBD2 P0B A51, P0G A52, P0J L51 or a P0H L51. These are all F22B2 automatic transmission ECUs.

If you are looking for a performance ECU you should look into a chipped OBD1 (Civic/Integra) ECU. An OBD2 - OBD1 conversion harness and a tune would also be required. In my opinion, if you only have bolt-on modifications, cold air intake/header/exhaust. Paying for a chipped and tuned ECU to gain a few ponies wouldn't be worth it. Save your money for a tune-up or a brake/suspension job.
