this is exactly how theft of hondas started with the models with the immobilizer.....there is a chance whoever stole your ECU will conduct some research on how to bypass the immobilizer.....after they mod. the ECU, those f*ckin thieves will use that to jack other Evos, etc.....
O BTW, forget those steering wheel hub release kits.... thieves carry these to steer the car

The only issues with the power kill switch are depending on where it's located it could be a pain in the *** to get to every time you want "piece of mind" and if it is in line with the power from the battery it will reset your ECU and you'll have to reprogram your radio every time you use it.
I think a good alarm and lojack are the best options along with parking your vehicle in your garage at night if you have one. It's kind of funny how many people in my neighborhood have their garages crammed full of junk and leave their cars in the driveway.
Bottom line is if they really want it they will find a way to get it.

i dont even have license plates on my new IX GSR and the other morning the driver window was blown out and they took my satellite radio from the center console. i was researching which alarm to get prior to that event...guess i shouldve made my decision earlier...anyways, i got a DEI python 700 - two way paging - piezo - dual sirens - the club (wife made me get it - haha!!! - it's a deterrent, right?) - prox. sensor...yes i am paranoid. need wheel locks though...any suggestions???(in case alarm fails for any reason, you know...)

people that mess with others' cars should be seriously injured and then hung upside down for many hours.
