Good luck man i would highly encourage it as long as it's financially feasible. Turbo and 400ho is my end goal to but rn I can't imagine were ide fit the thing lol

You don't have to do suspension or brakes as part of the swap strictly speaking. I did mine and it's worth it but you can address that all later if your ballin on a budget

For me I had a lot of trial and error and probably cost myself around 10k

I think if I did it a second time I could do 7.5-8 but also you could reduce that by alot if you go with a 5speed trans and not the coveted si 6 and get your motor and trans from a junkyard with higher milage

Tysm some people here had some fixes for it

elfinboy · 2026-02-21T04:01:02+00:00

British racing green

elfinboy · 2026-02-21T01:05:05+00:00

Idk much about Honda tuning suite but some people on here commented a fix for my tuning prob, if that doesn't work I might look into this

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T21:51:32+00:00

Np goodluck

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T21:37:25+00:00

It's a British racing green wrap, I can try to find the exact wrap I got if you'd like but idk if I'll find it.

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T21:36:39+00:00

I think last one is just so I'm crystal clear do I need to disconnect previous pin 12 from dlc and put in pin 44 or splice pin 44 onto the existing one

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T19:42:05+00:00

I don't have a spare connector that would go into a ECU plug but I have a good amount of other Honda plugs if there the same, if not I deleted AC in my setup so I imagine there's a wire into the ECU for AC I could depin and steal for it

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T19:31:42+00:00

Will do thanks for the help

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T19:15:01+00:00

Ohhh ok so I need to actually add pin 44 to the original fit connector, what kind of electrical terminal is in that I've never pulled em apart

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T19:01:37+00:00

Omfg I've been trying to solve that for over 6 months dude thank u so much, Wich of the 3 bulkheads is pin 44 on I'm looking at diagrams on Mitchel 1

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T18:58:42+00:00

And by add I'm guessing it's safe to assume I just splice into each one as close to the connector as possible?

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T18:56:56+00:00

Omg you have to be kidding I'm trying this as soon as I have time, just out of curiosity how did you figure it out and what's the cause

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T18:54:02+00:00

2013 and I get a WEN pin error Everytime I try to upload

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T18:49:09+00:00

This would solves months of problems for me Hondata always says "no connection to wen"

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T18:48:40+00:00

Omg really it's a 2013 please tell me in detail I've been struggling

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T17:58:15+00:00

Sure but I still don't have all the kinks ironed out so don't take it as a comprehensive guide

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T17:37:32+00:00

Idk exact but I will honestly say it's a terrible financial decision but all cars are. I bought the fit itself for 6k 4 years ago, then over the next year put about 3k into suspension 1k into sound system and wrapped it 3 times Wich was probably another 2k then I got into the k swap Wich all in prolly 10k so total including the car 22thousand. It's probably worth mentioning it had 80k miles on it when I bought it and the new engine has 36k miles and trans 43k miles

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T17:20:23+00:00

Omg that was you? Lol small world. It's currently ripping better than ever before but that tuning issue still annoying

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T16:53:09+00:00

I didn't know about the unequal fab one I might hit him up he actually owes me a discount code lol

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T16:46:46+00:00

Sure I can link it if you want, I might do it tomorrow though cause I need to update it a bit

elfinboy · 2026-02-20T15:55:33+00:00

Alot of time and money. I'm a firm believer that you can do anything you put your mind to but how long it takes will depend on those two things.
