Even getting it to run on the OEM ecu and build a harness isn't going to be cheap. A custom engine harness from a company like Rywire is 1500-3k. And then you are talking the custom tuning to get the ECU to run an engine it wasn't designed to. Unless they are providing a base map, that is a LOT of dyno time. If you are on a budget that is a good amount of savings, but still not cheap.

It sounds like the factory ECU option is for people who need the factory ECU with stock tune to be able to pass smog in their state. Someone would still need an ECUTEK cable and license and custom tune if they were running any setup other than the stock K24 setup.

The stock maps won't work on the K24 either, it would need a ton of custom development and tuning to make it work on the stock ECU. Once that's done once it would be easy to tweak on a car by car basis, but the original base map will be very time consuming.

I wonder if KPower approached him to help with their stock ECU solution...

Again, I believe Solidsnake11 used the 86’s ECU and much of the 86’s harness and some actuators to run the K24–different than this. That is how he ran eight injectors.

I meant the 86 stock ECU. Running them in parallel with a translator could work.
