Lol yes they are both on. Hackish forgot to get rid of the CEL for having no cat. I have the thing to trick it, but since its been so cold outside I haven't felt like putting it on. I'll get it on in the spring time.
And the SRS light, its because I painted my dash trim red. And I didn't know I should unplug my battery before removing all of that. So I don't feel like getting Mitsu to reset that stupid light.

So...
Nobody placed any bids, even for it being at $200. Anyways, I finally have a potential buyer, pending on dyno results.
I'll be running the ecu again next Monday. The buyer lives about an hour away from me, so we'll meet halfway to install the ecu and run it all the way to the dyno to ensure proper learning (normal driving, no racing). It will be a half an hour drive, and 25 to 30 miles, which I believe is enough as per Hackish and Brent's previous recommendations.
From what the buyer tells me, the car only has CAI, UDP, RRM header, 2.5 piping on stock muffler, no cat, running 93 octane. Basically stock with bolt-ons, no engine work, no sensor modding.
I'll shoot video while on the dyno, post results and dyno graphs. If everything is fixed, as it's been said here, then there should be no problems. I know the results will speak for themselves.
Until then...

Oh I wasn't sure, his posting said only for 04-05. I was also unsure, if it didn't work, would Hackish charge me full price to get the issue fixed since it was bought second hand?
If not, I might be interested. Hackish will Cyanide's flashed ECU work with my 06?

And I mean the new one that you are trying to sell to see if all the kinks were worked out. I'm interested but I have an 06 so I want to figure out if it work and if theres problems how i'd go about getting them fixed. Oh and I have a SRI, Catback exhaust, Endeavor Throttle Body, and an UDP.

Every year is different. I wouldn't be surprised if the power output changes by year as well. For example the later models don't kick into mivec until 500 rpm later. Some of them have completely different timing and knock maps.
The '06 ECU is specific to that car. It won't work on a '05 or earlier and an earlier ecu won't work on a later car. The reason is that the '06 uses CAN for some of the components - such as the speedo, 4 way flashers etc.

The first person that ever came trying to buy mine had an '06 with an '05 JDM bumper. I plugged it in, the car started, but there was no throttle control and the idle was bouncing roughly.
