Compatibility issue...

[BB Baboonface]

Hi folks, hope all is well.
I dont have K-Pro at the moment, and i have some issues regarding its compatibility with my car.

My car is a 2004 7th gen Civic with a K20A3 motor, the car uses a drive by wire system similar to the TSX/Accord.
I know these last two cars are incompatible with K-Pro due to DBW, and Honda's revision of the ECU.

However, my car is equipped with a PNF-G11 ECU, and i figured that if the DBW was swapped for a cable throttle, and the TPS and ICV were correctly wired, then the ECU should be K-Pro compatible, and not cause the loss of AC/instrument cluster functions.

The gear speed sensor and transmission are of the low frequency type, and i was hoping a USDM EP3 base map might be used as a starting point.
The issue here is, though a 5 speed box, the first and final drive ratios differ slightly from the EP3 Si, i understand that might cause problems, especially with the "boost by gear" interface.

I would be most grateful for any assistance.
Regards,

James

Oh dear! i was hoping to be inundated with responses full of reassurance that i wasnt mad! lol!
Not really! i am mad for a start, but as Hondata themselves got a TSX K-Pro'd with a cable TB conversion, and at least kept ABS working, i thought that having a PNF ECU, my car might retain full dash and AC functions.

I assume i would still lose cruise and VSA though.

Sorry, should i provide more information regarding background or such?

Thanks!

I have already replied to your emails about this.

So we meet again! lol!
I understand, and appreciate your response.
Sorry! i dont wish to keep bashing you about this.
The car is an odd blend of Accord/TSX/Civic, but looking at diagrams and bits for hours led me to think that with the ECU coding and similarities to other non DBW Civics something may be possible.
I do see that you would not wish to be held accountable if something were to go wrong, but hey! im not into pointing fingers!
Many thanks,

James
