This would be like going through the effort of putting in a weaker ford crankshaft and going out of your way to do it to prove (what point?) I don't know.

Just buy the propper EMS and start tuning your car already.

Tell me exactly how the cost/benefit analysis of this transpired in your head?

Look I honestly commend your insanity and resourcefullness but just remeber McGuiver has been scratched from prime time.

It just drives up shits creek (not really but internet wise) that people who want to "race" their car cant pay about 2-400 bucks more for a read standalone system that has support, history in racing and ease of setup, + warrenty and is a long term investment that in most cases can be swapped from car to car, depending on future projects.
hah man it almost hurts to read what you write. I have read atleast 5 different points of your's that single handedly discourage ingenuity and preach conformity.

You sound like a communist and if you did actually have the opportunity to run a society, there's no doubt it would be stuck in the stone age. If you think there's only one right way to do things, you have a lot to learn.

Your comment on the Honda engineers making a great system for honda makes you sound like you drive a honda. It's still just an engine, the aspects it has that make "it work!" can be applied to other engines as well.

Lastly, to actually contribute something useful so the OP doesn't have to say again, he can get the stuff for < $300, and has access to machinists and honda friends. He's got the cost portion down, if he can make reliable power that matches or surpasses other standalones then I'd say his cost/benefit analysis was done quite well.
