possibly. depends on how bad. if its a couple resistors and such, then maybe a competent electric shop can do it. i think there are also a few members on this board that might take it too.

reading the instruction and following them OWNS you. it says right int he book that if you install it even slightly wrong you can fry your ecu

Katman is the wiring/ecu guru for JHPUSA(JDM Honda Parts). He might be able to help you out. Kenji is another, who could possible resolve your problem.

Secondly, if you didnt get a weird smell them you probably didnt blow the ecu. The only thing that puzzles me is that another P28 ran the motor correct? Im assuming that you disconnected the VAFC. If it hadn't ran on another ecu I would say it was possible that you blew a fuse.

Open the ECU and inspect for blackened areas and smells thats your tall tail sign of a fried ecu.
