I am quite envious of STK Preludes AEM stand alone ECU Laughing

but I dont want to spend the $1000+ price tag & the hassle of importing one.

Is there another way round it? I have little knowledge of ECU's but have read a little on other forums.

Would it be possible to get an OBDII to OBDI convertor harness and use a P28 or P72 ecu?

P13 ECU's are not suitable, correct?

Any input would be great.

I was researching this when I was going to fit some uprated cams and came across this company who do conversion harnesses

hondata or crome it looks like next option, both use a p72 or p28

just remember with the p28 there is the IAB issue

It takes 2 minutes to sort out the IAB issue. Cool

Gat - Can you tell us about your setup? Hardware / cost / any issues and how to get round them ? Im very interested Razz

Edit - Does your EGR and 4WS still function with the P28?

I bought mine from here including the harness.
(please bear in mind that when I bought mine the exchange rate was nearly 2-1)

As for the IAB's, it's simply switching the vacuum pipes

4WS has a seperate ECU
EGR doesn't work with new ECU (P28)
Disclaimer, don't blame me if you fúck it up! lol

Gat - have you ever had your car dyno'd? You've had a fair bit done to yours now haven't you?

Sorry bit of a thread highjack, but an ECU is definately something im looking into aswell but can't justify the prices before Think

so by doing this it operates the IAB's to open at what rpm? or keep them open all the time? closed all the time?

From what I have read on PreludePower

So with the P28, does the IAB stay open or closed, since it's not controlled?

No IABs so I have the vacuum line for that hooked up directly to the IM so it opens based on throttle position.
