Default How to install a performance chip for an '06 RSX Type-S??

I know absolutely NOTHING about cars, so make sure this explanation can be understood by a monkey. I have a chip with an on/off switch, so I would like to have that near me in the driver's seat... But I don't know the first thing about how to do it. Where do the wires go? Where is the ECU? I don't know craaaap so please help. Thanks.

id take it in if your not sure but it under the dash but if you want it up by you you will need to have it wired in and make up a clip to hook it to the ECU its not that hard to do

Well, my boyfriend has a 03 RSX Type-S, and I find that the site: www.clubrsx.com has alot of information, especially the forums. If you register (free) to the discussions, you can ask alot of acura enthusiasts with alot of knowledge about these cars and they have Do-It-Yourself (DIY) forums and sometimes even installations and diagrams to help you out. Just do a search there. Hope I was helpful.

well on most aftermarket chips you plug it into your OBD2 slot cuz wiring up a chip in your ECU may damage something like bad
