VAFC install harness!!

i found this on the web. Its a harness that plugs into the ECU with out having to cut the wires on the ECU. The harness is pre cut and ready for install. Its actually designed for the field vtec controller but im pretty sure it would work. It would make install real quick and easy. Now for my question. The catalog does not have a 99 acura CL listed so which year is accord ECU is the same as the 99 2.3 CL ?? im thinking the ECU is the same as 99 accord. I dont want to order it and turns out that the 99 accord uses a diff ECU.

For the $155 it cost to buy that harness I would use that money for some dyno runs and just splice the vafc wires into the stock harness. Its really not that hard at all. Just figuring out which is the correct wire to splice is the hard part.
If you have a 2.3 I would get the accord 98+ 4 cylinder harness, if you have a 2.2 then I would get the 96-97 4 cylinder accord EX harness.

there is usually a code under the ECU box that shows what ECU it is. Now i just need to find the code for the 98+ accord. Sounds like a good idea?

Which harness would match my 99 3.0? Can you say plug and play VAFC. Makes me nervous just thinking about cutting the ECU harness.

tell me about it.i might save up and get it so i can cut the wires on the harness instead. Therefore i can work on the harness itself instead of trying to squeeze in the passenger side and cutting the stock wires. Its not that much room. Itll be alot better with the harness.

why though you can install it yourself and get the same results the harness all it does it plug in and you can have the vafc in seconds but hey it would be cool if you were transfering the vafc to another car you wouldnt have to recut the wires you cut already, so i think it would be good but not for $150 i would get it if it was around 60 or so but it doesnt sound wortht he money

I am sure this has been asked but where do you get the VAFC for the 3.0?
Thanks in advance.
