Jeff your so right. I have learned a fare amount of information from this thread, let alone reading about the products discussed.

getting the APEXI NEO. If I fail at least you guys will learn from my mistake. So I am going to be the first one to jump in the water. wish me luck. hopefully I can get it all down for less then 500 bucks. APEXI NEO + boomslang harness + tune

have fun. maybe this can turn out to be a cheap solution for us bolt-on'ers. I think I'm still on tim's side on this, though. It's K-Pro, or No-Go.

[thisaznboi88]

yeah since no one knows if it will work I want to find out myself. This is for all the bolt on brothers. All the All motor build and F/I go kpro  its the best.

[timot_one]

It will work, but the gains will be marginal.  You can only get so much power by adjusting fuel and VTEC engagement.  Without the ability to adjust timing and cam angle, the potential to make power is significantly reduced.  IMHO, for bolt ons, it's a waste of money.  Guys with full bolt ons and K-Pro only made about 10-15 WHP, so I would only expect you to make an additional 5-7 WHP with this.

yeah I know. Also this only can adjust AFR and not i-vtec and that is like 1/3 way to make power. The other 2 are ignition timing and cam angles. I think I can make it down to 300 bucks if I just do T clamps but I need the ECU PIN out. If you can get me that ECU PIN out for an auto accord that would be great.

[timot_one]

I will come to Cali and slap the shit out of you if you think I'm not going to give you a hard time about using T clamps.  Are you trying to ruin your car?

[Mike]

T Clamps on engine management are you feeling okay?

[thisaznboi88]

Sorry I just woke up so please slap me. lol. I mean to say T-taps *just to see if it will run first* Then the boomslang is going to get order or else I will be wasting money on something that would not work.

[CrackerTeg]

Solder and heat shrink is the only way to go man. Don't T splice that shit. If you're talking about engine management, T splices will only be a ticking time bomb for when they fail. That's the worst advice anyone can give. Smack your friend on behalf of all of us here at ECM for giving WRONG advice.

[timot_one]

T-Taps are not a good electrical connection.  Only half ass lazy motherfuckers use those.  You run the risk of frying your ECU and damaging your motor if you use those.  Just pony up and get the harness if you're not willing to solder and heat shrink.

Fine boomslang it is gotta wait a few weeks. its on back order.

Good decision man. Do it right the first time and you'll be fine. If it doesn't work out for you, you're harness is unmolested and you could turn around and sell the whole thing.

[thisaznboi88]

alright kool. I have an Auto that why the harness is going to take a little long since most of the boomslang harness are MT. Its also another extra 20 but w/e as along as it work and doesn't blow up my car I will be happy. I am just going to hook it up first to monitor AFR. Most likely I am probably going to hold off on it because school starts next week.
