This service is for customers who want to mail in their OBD1 ECU for professional chipping, socketing, repair, and upgrade services. Shipping is covered by us both ways.

REQUIRED BEFORE SHIPPING

⚠️ You MUST email clear images of your ECU at the time of ordering.
This helps us verify condition, connectors, and identify any prior damage before service begins. For large damage, water damage, burn damage, contact us before ordering. 

This listing does NOT include a basemap chip by default.
If you want a full package including socketing, chipping, and a basemap installed, please select the option.

ECU Mail-In Socketing/Chipping Service

SUPPORTED ECUs

We service the following OBD1 Honda/Acura ECUs:

  • P05
  • P06
  • P28
  • P30 (USDM only)
  • P61 (USDM only)
  • P72 (USDM only)
  • P75

WHAT THIS SERVICE INCLUDES

This is more than a basic socketing service. Every ECU is carefully serviced, repaired when needed, and upgraded for long-term reliability.

Services include:

  • ECU socketing and chipping
  • Full ECU inspection and diagnostic check
  • ECU repair services (including burnt, damaged, or failed components)
  • Burnt capacitor replacement and circuit-level repair
  • Professional-grade solder work and trace inspection
  • Stability and communication verification

FULL CAPACITOR UPGRADE (WHAT SETS US APART)

Unlike most ECU chipping services that only replace failed parts, we go further.

Every ECU we service receives a full capacitor replacement upgrade, not just spot repairs.

This means:

  • Every electrolytic capacitor is replaced
  • Improved long-term ECU reliability
  • Reduced risk of future failure or leakage damage
  • Stronger stability for tuned and performance applications

This is one of the biggest differences between our work and typical “quick chip” or Facebook ECU services.

CN2 DATALOGGER INCLUDED

Every ECU is also equipped with a CN2 datalogging connection, allowing compatibility with supported Honda tuning and logging setups for tuning and diagnostics.

OPTIONAL UPGRADES (SELECT AT CHECKOUT)

You may further customize your ECU service with:

  • Basemap installation (sold separately)
  • Non-VTEC to VTEC ECU conversion (sold separately)
  • Hondata S300 preparation or full S300 installation (sold separately)
  • Repair damaged board (sold separately)

HOW TO SHIP YOUR ECU

Shipping label will be emailed to you with instructions after placing an order

QUALITY & TESTING GUARANTEE

Every ECU is:

  • Fully tested on an engine simulator before shipping
  • Verified for communication, stability, and proper operation
  • Hand-inspected for solder quality and circuit integrity

WHY CHOOSE THIS SERVICE

Most ECU socketing services only do the minimum required work.

We take a different approach:

  • Full component-level repair when needed
  • Complete capacitor replacement for longevity
  • Clean, professional soldering standards
  • Extra durability beyond stock ECU lifespan
  • Real testing before it leaves the shop

Your ECU is not just modified—it is rebuilt for reliability and long-term performance.

Shipping & Returns

We have a 30-day return policy, which means you have 30 days after receiving your item to request a return. Returns not applicable to Custom ECU/Emulator Packages or Soldering/Socketing Packages.

To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, and in its original packaging.

Please inspect your order upon receiving and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged or if you receive the wrong item, so that we can evaluate the issue and make it right.
