You actually dont need the M800, only the M600.


Its costly, but worth it for the drive by wire vehicles.


I've been quite busy with a few different other projects i have going on. but within the coming months, I will be building a plug and play motec m600 for use with the drive by wire nsx models.   


I dont want to release or begin to speculate until I get it fully functional (on my vehicle as the test bed).  But the goal is for it to be completely plug and play.  Currently if you were to run motec, you would have to complete a seperate harness, which is very time consuming/confusing if you dont know what you're doing.


The problem with the AEM piggybacking onto the stock ECU on the DBW (drive by wire) cars is you have no control of what the stock ecu is doing w/ the throttle.  There is a limp mode the stock ecu can throw and limits the car to only opening the throttle to 33%.  As well as the fact you have no control over the idling (ie. if you run say 1000/1200 cc injectors, you need to bump the idle to say about 950-1000 rpms to get a steady idle due to the injector pulse width being so small at those rpms and injector sizing).   


Not to mention motec has more advanced features, some which people may or may not need. but for those who do wish to have it, its nice to be able to obtain it (ie. traction control by closing the throttle plate)
