I am getting a ton of emails concering what people need for the 05-06 k-pro.

what you need is a 02-04 PRB ECU or any other approved ECU (if you want to retain features like the reverse lock out you will want a 02-04 RSX Type S ECU as the donor) and also a primary O2 sensor from an 02-04.
the most common purchased option is $1140 if you ship it yourself to Hondata (the ECU only, no key or immobilizer).

your second option is to out right buy the k-pro for the 05-06 found here
the cost is $1689 and you still need to supply yourself a 02-04 O2 sensor.
make sure you select Hondata supplied option in the drop down for $549. The lead time would be approximately 4-5 business days for the new ECU to show up at your door (Yes all you have to do is wait for that brand spankin new K-pro to come to you)

this is where you can also purchase a brand new primary O2 sensor for K-pro if you don't have one:

If i didnt clarify this enough feel free to post in the thread.

thanks,

so ..... we do not need out 05/06 ECU any more ....... all we do is buy a new ecu from hondata ...

like the ECU here ?
$1145 - K-Pro, ECU modifications and adapter harness (user supplied donor ECU).
$1745 - K-Pro, ECU modifications and adapter harness (with new Honda 2004 RSX-S kECU)

if that is so and i have an type-s 06

all i need is $1745 ECU, is that right ?
also will the $1745 cover all the stuff we need for the boost ?
or do we need to get thing like the oxygen senor and OBD2 ?

ok I know I'm :deadhorse but I just want to make sure I have everything straight. I find an ECU from an 02-04 rsx type s, I ship that to hondata. They ship it back with K-pro, I replace my stock ECU with the one Hondata has shipped to me, this much I'm clear on. But can someone go more in-depth on the sensor we need? i.e. what's involved in installing it, whether or not I need to ship that to hondata with the ECU, etc. Also, as I add on more mods, are there custom calibrations that I can upload to accommodate? Last, how familiar do I have to be with the internals of my engine, or can I get away with pre-existing calibrations?

Do 05-06 K-Pro include base maps for 05-06 RSX (including FI maps)?
 
#93 ·
Yep I realize that, is there base maps for further tune up?
9psi JRSC with CAI and RH?

I'm about to get my K-Pro in a couple of days, and planning to go sc'd next month. that's why I asking.

You have to buy an ecu from a 02-04 model year and then purchase Kpro through an authorized dealer like CRSX. The dealer will forward your info to Hondata, and all you have to do is ship the ecu to Hondata, they will modify it, install the kpro board, and give you an adapter that will enable you to connect to your 05-06 RSX.

You can usually get a used one for under $400.00. Check on ebay, and the classified section on CRSX. Also check to see if anyone is currently selling their already modified ecu with Kpro on it, you can save some money that way.
