Please, PLEASE make me a harness!!
For the love of all that is good and holy, please make me a wiring harness for the APEXi V-AFC controller!! Please?? I will pay!! American dollars!! Sexual favors!! My first born!! Whatever!!
People are lookng for this and would buy this! We just need a harness so we can plug-n-play without voiding the warranty. I have niether the skill nor the contacts to get this done. Please help me do this. I understand great gains can be had with proper tuning and I have a shop here that is giving me the tuning and install for a steal. I really really want to do this.
Help me make my dream come true.
Thanks,
Mark
P.S. - Desperate times call for desperate measures.

You can use a field VTEC harness for plug and play. Ozy has done it on his Prelude and his Stook. He said it is easy... it just costs about $100 or so.
I am in the same boat... I would love to put one of these in mine as well. But $100 for a harness chaps my hide.

We are working on getting more harnesses to modify for this application. Currently all of them are on back order from japan.
We will post and let everyone know when they are in stock. We will modify them to work on the S2000.

Well, today I sat down with Doug from Hondata (the joys of SoCal, I can go talk to most anyone in the import community by simply hopping in the car and driving less than 1 hour).
I talked with him about our harness issues. Here is the deal.
1. The connectors can be sourced from AMP. Total cost for all 4 pieces needed is miniscule. Under $25 even in 'small' quantities.
2. It isn't hard to make a direct harness for our cars because its a one-one wiring loom, no unusual conversions like Hondata's OBDI-OBDII conversion harnesses. Thus, the labor isn't much.
3. Doug is perfectly willing to make them
But...
AMP requires a minimum order of between 600 and 1200 pieces for each of the 4 different connectors needed. As you might guess, that means a $15k or more capital investment in parts. The parts could be used in other cars, but that's a big non-capital expenditure for a small company like Hondata, and they simply aren't willing to undertake it at this time - unless of course we could scrounge up a couple hundred orders at $100 each.
The other option is to go find a burned out OBDII ECU and the plugs from an OBDII wiring harness in a 1998-1999 Honda (integra, civic, doesn't matter). Then we could easily do a harness, or have someone like Doug do one for a few bucks if you didn't feel like wiring it yourself.
Skunk2 also sells harnesses for other cars that might work with minimal mods, but apparently they charge about $200 for one.
Bummer, eh? I might try and undertake the junkyard route.
