Honda ECU in a DSM?

[DSM-is-LOVE]

Has anyone seen this? They used a chipped a Honduh either p72 or p28 to run on a DSM..... I don't honestly know how to feel about this one....

is it easier to tune or something? i don't get why they would do that, cheaper than link, but im sure it wasnt just plug and play lol

So not honda 'powered' (as that implies theres a honda motor in it) but honda ecu in it...crazy.

It sounds like it runs like complete ass.

maybe they wanted vtec?

Makes absolutely no sense when the DSM ECU has been cracked and Link is almost as good as a full standalone unit, and in some ways is even better. I've definitely thought of wiring up a DSM ECU in my Lotus, where all there is for tuning is an upgraded chip with no user interface. In these applications where there is no available software, a Hondata or DSMlink would be perfect.

The Honda ECU is used in other kinds of cars that don't have any good tuning options, but it's stupid to run it in a DSM. You can do speed density with and without DSMLink on the factory ECU or swap in an EVO ECU. All of which are better ECUs with more useful mods for them and real knock control that works.
