p06 pricing?

[CappuccinoLX]

hey guys i am looking at buying a p06... I found one on craigslist for 80 but its chipped with no map, but i was thinking i'd just cut the jumper as the guy said and run it stock. so for a stock p06 is $80 too much?

you can't run a P06 in your Accord, the P06 is for a 1.5L Civic engine

thats a good price, just take it to a local tuner to load a basemap.

Well i was told by several people on this forum and friends locally that the p06 was the best ecu for my f22a6.

and people run p28's on their h22's and thats a civic ecu...or so I've been told.

alright, but i don't understand much about that stuff. what would i tell the guy? I'm just putting it on my pretty much stock a6.

It has to be chipped and properly tuned for your engine.

If you don't know what you're doing, don't touch your ECU. The PT6 you have now is the best ECU for your F22A6, unless you know how to tune an ECU (or want to pay someone that does.) A near-stock F22A won't benefit much from a tuned ECU anyway.



And for the record... you can find a P06 in a junkyard for about $15.

You've got a point. Thanks for the input.

A P28 has to be chipped and tuned for an H22 before you can run it with an H22. Same with running a P06 in an Accord.

At least you asked before simply installing it... I always feel bad (but get a bit of a chuckle) when people say "I put a stock Civic ECU in my Accord... why doesn't it run properly?" Unfortunately, it's not because of stupidity... it's because of incomplete information being given online.

When someone says you should get a certain part for your car, don't just take their word for it. Learn why you want that part, and what it does. Then YOU decide if you should get it or not.

perhaps you should refrence the sickies in this section much info to be learned as well as links to learn more if you want to put the energy into understanding the reason why people would use that ecu for a particular applications

SOOOO many stupid non-functional/detrimental mods out there because no one does that. At least with this one you are sorta forced to find out about it.

some of the best advice someone can give...and like said before unless you do some mods no need to change the ecu u have...
