haha.. acura told you that... what a bunch of newbies i must say.. makes me wonder what they do when somenone need a new key..lol..

anyways the ecu is a 2 stage immobolizer... it does 2 different things.. one it cuts power to the fuel pump so it doesnt send any fuel to the motor... the second thing is that it kills the distributor or ignition on the motor so it wont provide a spark to the motor.. there is a way around the fuel pump but there is no way of getting around the other one. I dont know what hasport was talking about for a few minutes... it will crank buit wont start... hjowever there is a way around the igniter kill.... either get a kpro... or get a type r ecu... the type r ecu only has one of the kill features... and thats the fuel pump....

take clip c101 from the k20 wireharness and move it as follows

move clip 1 into 4
move clip 2 into 5
move clip 3 into 6
leave 7 as is
leave 8 as is
move clip 9 into 17
clip 10** read note on bottom of image
leave 11 and 12 as is
clip 13** read note on bottom of image
move clip 14 into 19
clip 15** read note on bottom of image
leave 16 as is
move clip 17 into 9
leave 18 as is
clip 19** read note on bottom of the image
leave 20 as is

I think that covers it.. please feel free to add anything in.. especially DARK2K1 who supplied the wire harness diagram.
