The CivicLink skips all of that. It fits inside your factory ECU enclosure, plugs into the existing loom with no modification, and gives you full G4X engine management on a B16 or B18 swap. Available in OBD1 and OBD2 versions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCheck Your Connector Before You Order\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMost important thing on this page, and it matters more here because this is a final sale item. The two versions are distinguished by connector, and the color makes it easy to identify.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOBD1 (205-4000) has a white connector.\u003c\/strong\u003e For 1992-1995 applications using the Honda OBD1 ECU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOBD2 (206-4000) has a gray connector.\u003c\/strong\u003e For 1996-1998 applications using the Honda OBD2A ECU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLook at the plug on your car and match it to the product photos before ordering. Don't go by model year alone, especially on a swapped chassis where the ECU and harness may have come from a different car than the shell did. On a B-series swap that's more common than not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSales Are Final On This Item\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorth being upfront about. Tuning devices are non-returnable, so this is a final sale product with no returns or exchanges once it ships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat's standard across the industry for ECUs and tuning hardware, but it does mean the connector check above isn't a suggestion. Confirm your plug, confirm your transmission, and get in touch if there's any doubt. We'd much rather answer a question now than have you stuck with the wrong unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIt Goes In The Factory Enclosure\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is what makes the CivicLink different from most standalone options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit fits inside your original ECU case and connects to the factory wiring loom without any alteration. No custom harness to build, no relocating the ECU, no cutting into wiring you'd rather leave alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePractically, that means an install measured in minutes rather than a weekend, and a car that still looks stock where the ECU lives. It also means you can go back to the factory ECU if you ever want to, since nothing has been modified to get there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat You Get With G4X\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFull standalone engine management, which is a genuinely different thing from a reflash or a piggyback.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou get complete control over fuel and ignition, support for most factory features so the car still behaves like a car, and expansion inputs and outputs for whatever you're adding to the build. Link's tuning software is well regarded and there's a large base of tuners familiar with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe expansion connector provides sensor ground, low current +5V supply, three analog 0-5V inputs, an auxiliary output, a digital input, and a temperature sensor input. That's enough to add sensors and controls as the build develops without needing another box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eRead These Before You Buy\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFour things worth knowing up front rather than after.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManual transmission only.\u003c\/strong\u003e Both versions.

Swapped chassis, built engine, boost, or anything past what a factory ECU can handle properly.
