There are no pretuned chips. You will have to have it tuned on the dyno by a Hondata dealer. You can use any of the compatible OBD1 ecus from the list at http://www.hondata.com/ecus.html.

i ordered a p28 ecu from a dealer and they said that it would be all set to work in my prelude..... i had to order one since the closest dealer that i could go buy one from is about 4.5 hours away..... what am i going to need to do when i get the chipped p28 ecu to make it work in my prelude?

You will have to have it tuned on the dyno to ensure that it runs safely and makes good power.

ok. thanks but what do you mean by safely? will it work for a while until i can get on a dyno in the comming weeks? is there anything that i should be concerned about? i dont see why the delaer i baught it from said it would work just fine when i get, he never said anything about having to tune it on a dyno.......ih ya i forgot to mention that i am running pretty much a stone stock setup for now.... i dont know is that matters or not?

It will really all depend on how good the basemap is you are provided with by your dealer.
