lol wow bro i just got finished having that problem with mine.... simple answer: it isnt designed to accept the accord 4 cyl..... SAME EXACT PROBLEM... lol makes me wanna cry seeing how that accord gets no love from anyone.... its okay tho. very high potential for becoming a great show car... try the VAFC2 thats the route im taking, and as far as i can see, it accepts the car... the accords safe mode doesnt disregard the new vtec controller. hope u got enough cheese for it tho. GL
by the way... same car... i hate copying or jumping on bandwagons, so i'll just say, let me know if u got any "inspiring" ideas
