My chips are £20. I assume the 'chip' you are referring to is a speedo converter from km/h to m/h and yours is a JDM 2.2 VTEC 4th gen Prelude?

Ask in the Electrical section as I'm not too clued up on the speedo converter locations and how they affect the VTEC in first before your order one of my chips. :wink:

My bad, you already asked the question first:

http://www.ludegeneration.co.uk/honda-p ... 14806.html

That's right, your speed signal converter needs to be moved to behind the speedo but then the Japanese factory limiter comes back into play. The guys at Spoon when they produced these remaps, also removed the national speed limiter of 112mph.

It sounds like you have some ideas for a full remap tune in the future using a local place and a P28 ECU (or the like) mapped on something – most likely Crome software. That will no doubt see into £300-500 for a chipped P28 and some dyno time. In which case my £20 chip is a very good upgrade in the meantime for the money. The only other thing is to factor in someone to ‘chip’ you P13 Prelude ECU to be able to install my chip. All the info / pics are on the first page of this for sale thread. And if you need some feedback, just read previous pages of happy peeps on here. I’m not a business, just a long standing Prelude owner/forum member who took over making copies of these chips from a guy called Sleepy on an old forum called Prelude UK. Just providing a great map to the masses that’s from a trusted source. :wink:

If you want one, just pay via Paypal to: wobwyatt@hotmail.com
And then drop me a PM to let me know.

Any other questions just shoot. :D

Cheers,

Rob

Thanks for the reply mate. Right so your chip raises the rev limit 8500? But what if the engine is not making any more power after 8000rpm. Will this not damage the engine as ive been told h22 engines shouldnt go past 8000 rpm in the first place or else it is very dangerous? I am considering buying your chip. Do i get instruction manuals for the person who is going to install it? Also is there any catch with thos chip? Like will it damage anything

My diesels rev limit is 5k but I don't make power after 4k so I don't take it there. A rev limit is just a limit. Does not mean you should try to get there all the time. I don't make power on my Prelude after 7900 rpm so when mine was mapped there was no point increasing the limit.

Thats right. Spoke to tuners today and they are saying when they map my car they are going to see where the rev limit should be placed so i dont go further and place the vtec where the engine is breathing best. Been told to get hondata s3000 ecu by most tuners. They are saying its the best

Have a read on the 1st post. Rob has explained everything including the rev limit.

Completely agree, you don't make any more power above the factory limiter, the Spoon V2 map I have doesn't increase the limiter. I have other Spoon maps (V1 & V3) that increase to 8500rpm which a couple of peeps have asked specifically for, but they don't make as good gains as the V2 throughout the rev band.

It comes with the socket to 'chip' the ECU, the Spoon chip and installation instructions as per the info on the first page. You need someone capable of soldering electronic PCB boards. An original chip is removed (desoldered) and the socket soldered back in its place. The only thing that can go wrong is the install of the socket, so either find someone local that knows what they're doing, or I'd recommend posting your ECU to a guy on here called bluejackhustler, he's done a few on here now including fixing soldering jobs gone wrong.

It will NOT damage anything on the car.

Hondata S300 is a great tuning system, I use one! But you're into £500+ for ECU & S300, plus the dyno time £300-400. I've written a fair bit on tuning options in my build thread here:

I think you should have probably put 'not' rather than 'will' in all caps, don't want to scare the skim readers :lol:
