Default em1 with h22a4, ecu help.!!!!

hey im new in the honda game and i bought an 2000 em1 with an h22a4 swap, they did the swap really decent with cruise control working and a/c too, but one thing i noticed is that its still running the p2t ecu from the si, was wondering if i should get the h22 ecu or rn a chipped p28... also i would like to know what else i can do to the car.

Is it running badly? If not leave it alone.

If you're getting a code then it's not okay like I suspected. What else is wrong with the car? Why does it NOT have the correct ECU?

If there was nothing wrong. Why did you pull codes? Just curious. And why doesn't it have the correct ECU in it? Might want to call that seller up and ask if you can get it from him.

So you're not getting a CEL. If you clear the ECU what happens? Get the right ECU.

Either one would work if you don't have to worry about emissions and visual inspections.

I have no clue what "what else" even means. Do what you want.
