I did

But it was at Texas World Speedway and depending on which way we are going on the track, you could easily hit past 114mph governer on the main straight.

I dont know about you...

Going faster then 45mph in a prelude is scarry. I shudder at the thought.

I don't know if this makes a difference if the ECU controls the cruise control as well or if there's another module for that, but my 92 BB1 JDM Prelude cannot have the cruise control set higher than 100kph. It sucks when your on the highway and want to do the speed limit.

Since the JDM H22 has a higher compression ratio, wouldn't the JDM ECU have slightly different fuel and ignition maps?

Well looks like they actually knew what they were doing. When I went to pick up I got to speak with the guy who did the majority of the work. Very thorough. The reason for all the confusion early on was because the H22A came with a 4ws ecu... anyone want to buy one?

Thanks again to everyone who replied. Now all I need is some new upper ball joints and I can finally enjoy this beast. And boy does it feel strong.

Lol so the extra ECU threw them off? Glad you got your car back!

Just pray that you don't get the dreaded hesitation problem

4 plugs? 4W on the side? That ECU has nothing to do with 4ws. If it has 4 plugs its for the TCS.

You can use it, you'll just have a CEL for the TCS system.
