And how would i do that?

[91cord]

So I know that this is a repeat and it was in the post somewhere
All you need is the a6 manifold, IAB control box, and the ecu from a 92, 93 EX or a 91 SE. This may also be a stupid question but which pin is pin a17?

And whoever on here got the wire harness for the 92, 93 EX or 91 SE did you just cut the orginal wire harness and sodder the wires to the new wire harness? and how did that work out?

And does anybody have the parts to do this swap just laying around that they are willing to sell? Sorry if the questions are stupid

[accordztech]

i got a couple of iab but not the box just the valve...

as for the a17, its in one of those links lol i have to find out which link.

but i was going to cut off the harness off of a 92 but then i go thats alot of work, so (as explained in one of those posts i put up) that people just get a pin and then put it into the empty a17 plug, very easy.

AS FOR THE SWITCH

its easy, take one end of the iab connector and connect it to a positive switched when the ignition is on, then the other end relay it with a switch that is wired to a ground. when u want it on then the ground completes the circit (when u turn it on) and when its off its not grounded so its not on.

Is there any way to control the butterflies w/o doing the ecu swap?

u could just look at the post right above yours

Isn't he talking about pin a17 from the pt6 ECU?

[MRX]

thats all the valve is...as long as u have the vac box just wire up the the posi to a17 or where ever there is a pos. charge, then connect the ground to any metal part with a switch or vice versa

Hmm I might try this with an rpm window switch

[MRX]

if u can get one for cheap send me one too

[HondaFan81]

Haven't looked into it with detail, but I think there is experimentation going on with programming ECUs to open the butterflies at whatever RPM.

I have a 92 accord ex you can feel the power when it kicks in.

So, midnight, you're sure that the positive goes to the ECU/PIN A17 and the negative goes to a ground, that's it right? So the ecu provides the 12v, its not the other way around, ecu completes ground, other wire goes to a 12v source? Just wanted to make sure, I just finished my IAB/ECU setup.

[accordztech]

i tested this with a ground thing on my tester...when hit around 4700 it senced a ground.
