This is for some deeper discussion for me as I under stand how to do it. and have the desmog guide for the 3fe.
1. what I know, the 3fe is designed to run desmoged, I will get better power, smother running, and possibly better over all mileage but this is debatable and not really important.
2. I have a good idea how to do it and what parts are needed. per the desmog guide floating around the forum. if anyone wants it ill be happy to send it to you.
what I need to know/ want to discuss
1 is there really a reason to remove the smog pump if its not connected to anything.
2 how long does it really take for the ecu to learn, and how quickly will it forget when battery is disconnected.
3 why are most so scared of it
4 is there any real reason not to other than if you live in an area that tests emissions
5 is it possible or worth it to track down a non us ecu, or are there any better after market ecus that could be used and maybe use a mas air flow meter vs the afm which is impossible to find new and when you can its outrageously expensive.
