Question Ecu

I have a 2001 TL-P and was wondering if i could change my ECU to a 2003 TL-S ECU? I have the 03 TL-S gauge cluster and i noticed the rev limiter is higher than where my car stops reving. We used to this with honda civics and integras but i dont know it its the same and if it will work on my TL-P. Thanx

Dont think it will work. There are differences that the type-s motor has that the ecu is programed for. Simply raising your redline wont give you more power (your power will actually drop off and may cause damage by raising it), nor will the ecu. Now saying that i dont think any one has tried to know what would happen by doing so.

Oh Plus you will have to have it reprogrammed to your key by the dealer.
