Please note, this is my thread about what we are doing at Haltech, not an official Haltech thread, so I don't stand to gain anything from this or sales of this product when it is finished. That being said.
DISREGARD WHAT HAS BEEN SAID ABOUT THE E6X, AS WE ARE USING AN E8 NOW.
As some of you know, I started working for Haltech about a month and a half ago, and I love my job. Even more so now that we are developing a plug and play standalone system for m/t obd1 hondas such as our own.
We have not done much yet apart from getting the pinouts for a p06 (Im currently running a chipped p06 with crome pro) and the wiring diagram for the e6x and for the accord.

I started matching up everything so that we could use a jumper harness to connect the factory wiring harness to the e6x.
That's honestly about as far as we have gotten so far, as we are an office of 3, and we do all distribution, tech support, etc from this office here in Lexington.
Now, some random tidbits about all of this.
My car does not have a/c so I am not sure if this will allow people to retain usage of their a/c.
The e6x does not like sensors apart from gm style sensors, so the air temp and coolant temp sensors might have to be changed. However, we sell those too, and offer them in metric and sae sizes as well, and we are hoping the metric sizes fit without any sort of modification. If not, they will require some sort of tapping to make them fit. Development is too early to either confirm or deny this currently.
The e6x does not have the calibration for the stock honda map sensor(1.8 bar or so) however, it has an internal 2.5 bar map sesnor built in, so this isn't really much of an issue. A 2 bar map sensor is good up to 22 psi, which is more than sufficient for a stock block turbo guy. The software does work with 1, 2, 3, 2.5int, 5, and 7 bar map sensors however, so if you ever plan on running more boost than that, it is easy to configure and set up.
As for the e6x, it supports some cool features like anti-lag, vtec, boost control, nitrous switch, shift light, and lots of other stuff. The e6x software is free for download on the haltech website, so feel free to mess around with it.
Haltech understands that it is hard to compete with cheap and free programs like crome and uberdata, etc, so we are hoping to keep the price relatively low. Hopefully retail will be around $999 but since things are so early in development, that is defnitely up in the air still. For a full plug and play standalone, that is a very good price, and the haltech units are very high quality, so I believe this will be a good deal. The e6x does not require expensive upgrades, doesnt require chips to be burnt, and supports datalogging. You can check out specs on it here
