I may try out deactivating one cylinder by pulling the injector connector, and deactivating the valves, I guess if honda does it for efficiency then there might be some gains hopefully the mod works and they just aren't doing it for marketing. Ill have to research this a bit and read through the replies properly when I have more time.

Edkiefer just out of interest how have you found info about compatibility of parts between different cars. I have never known how to find out if a part from one car is suitable for mine.
hi , On the vehicles with deactivation cylinder mods , just remember they start out with all cylinders firing and go into various mods when cruising .

Well I don't know that much on compatibility, I did work on many Mazda back in 85-95 timeline, mostly Rx7, 323 and 626 (ones that were turbo mostly) .

There a lot you can find online, like parts catalogs or even Google it just takes some searching and reading time .

I now have a 08 Accord so I read up on there features .
Thats about it.
