I have a 2011 K20z3 (drive by wire)
Is there a standalone ECU that will work for me to plug & play to my harness?

I want to do a force induction project -- can someone advice me what
standalone ECU that I need to buy.

thank you

 

FlashPro

 

megasquirt ;D the best would be just install a normal throttle body and pedal

 

If I use mega squirt will I be able to use my wiring harness and the plug without buggering or cutting it?

 

Yes. The beauty of megasquirt is that there are dozens of ways to skin that cat. Give the guys at diyautotune.com a call and they will be happy to answer all your questions

 

Thank you.....one more question.
If I go for Flashpro instead of buying standalone ecu, Is the Flashpro and my stock honda ecu can handle force induction mapping?

 

Yes it can. FlashPro has both fuel and ignition tables for boost.

 

Flashpro will be my first choice due to the reliability of the Honda stock ECU.
But I researched and found out that flashpro is only specific to the serial # of the ECU. It will not work to anyone's ECU.

What happen if I break my current ecu and pick up another used one?
Do i have to buy another flashpro?

 

The chances of you breaking your ecu is extremely unlikely. But if you registered your flashpro, you can send it and your new ECU to Hondata and they should be willing to remarry it for you.

Megasquirt is a good option, AEM EMS is also a good standalone (and better developed IMO). I personally choose standalone over Flashpro because I don't condone monopolies, and Hondata's UI is elementary at best. But either will do the job.

Alternatively you can also use the AEM F/IC6 piggyback for considerably less without sacrificing OBD, however it isn't as comprehensive *as* your other options. It does have its own injector drivers, map sensor, independent fuel & ignition tables, and a closed loop/O2 adjustment table. The software has pretty modern datalogging functions, real time updating, etc.
