ECU Questions...

Hey well i been saving money to get my ecu chipped and get it tuned with crome. Well have a p13 on my accord which has an h22a turbo setup and well when i took it to the shop that was gonna do the work for me they said that they cannot chip the p13 they told me that a p28 or p72 would be the best ecu's i can go with because those are already set with the Vtec and if i got something else they would have to charge extra to add the Vtec. So my question is.... Does anybody know if this is the best way to go? And if it is the best way to go would $200 be too much to pay for either?

Thanks for the advice in advance.

$200 for just the ECU, or $200 for the ECU and its chipping/socketing?

Check out phearable.net for packages of the ECU, chip/socketed, basemap tune to get you from the shop to the dyno, and a few extra settings if you wish.

Yea, my phearable package included my P28 ECU Chipped/Socketed, had a basemap tune put on it, and got the OBDII to OBDI conversion harness all for $255.

Lots of options on their site.

That or just find yourself a used ECU anywhere for cheap, and have your tuner just take it and work with it.
