that is where I got lost. I don't understand how you can bypass the ecu unless you plan on not running vtec.

I didnt give you any ideas...just your options. You were making a simple pretty straight forward swap complicated. Do what you want to, I was trying to help. Learn to use GOOGLE it helps.....helps me alot when i need to figure something out

A. i wanna thank the guy above you for bringing this thread back from the dead.. not.
