The only things that they do to the ecu is up the rev limiter, and advance the timing a little...oh and remove some of the fuel...I believe that it is CARB legal, but who is going to know?

Austin - who owns a Hondata and is happy with it

I’m considering the Comptech ECU because it is designed for use with the Icebox, Comptech header and cat back, which I have on my ITR. The ECU changes the timing curve, rev limiter, and VTEC engagement point. My only reservation is it lowers VTEC engagement to 4000 rpm. That is just a little under 70 mph in 5th w/15 inch wheels and tires with the correct aspect ratio for the R. This might make it tough to use the car as a daily driver.

You sure about 4000rpm vtec engagement? That seems insane for a daily driver especially on the freeway... and i thought the mugen ecu had a low vtec engagement.

vtec does not engage at low throttle positions ie cruising.

Well...the Icebox was designed 2 years after the ECU program was produced.

Well...please allow me to adjust my post.

Comptech - Who says that it might be OK if you use their ECU with the Icebox, header and catback.

Why not just go ahead and get a Hondata if your going to spend that much money?
