I think he means performance related ECU upgrades, not factory TSBs. Right now I don't know of any, although anything could be applied given enough time and $$.

i really doubt there would be any ECU upgrades for the J series motor. hondata would probably be the only ones putting out such a product. the problem with the J series motor(especially the type-s and 3rd gen) is that its already pretty highly tuned. 270hp from a 3.2liter motor is pretty good commercial vehicle.

There already is the ECU "piggyback" systems available for the 2nd Gen J series motor. UniChip, and GReddy e-Manage can be used. Basically the same motor.
