NO

 

But will i get more power with the Type R ECU....Besides not passing smog in California.

Is there other problems it may cause by installing this ECU like running richer fuel and messing up my 02 sensors and cat

 

you may get a littlemore power but that ecu is geared towards high compression and high lift cams so it would not be worth it unless you had atleast the cams

 

I have some adjustable cam gears But you are talking about the Cam Shaft right????/

 

Any more info??????

 

no you would need slightly higher compression and type r cams

 

"high lift cams" are not the same thing as "adjustable cam gears"

 

LOL...Yes, Cam and Cam gear's are totally different! You have your cam shaft/s either SOHC or DOHC and in your case you have a DOHC. Then you have your cam gear's, which are used to adjust timing and so on.

It's not worth buying the ECU cause for one, your from CA and from what I have heard the laws are strict. Two, you won't be gaining much, if any, without the proper upgrades.
