Yeah Im not sure if you guys can help me with this, Im swapping a H22 in my 94 accord and the ECU that came with the H22 on the bracket has a black box on it that looks like a phone or e-thernet cable can plug into, my accord ECU bracket does not have this black box on it, I was wondering if anyone can tell me what it is, Thanks

isn't it a GPS tracking system? It checks your speed and wherever you go. Some parents had this installed to track where their kids go.

Why would they have a speed tracking box on an H22 ecu? Is it jdm? i would judge it to be some kinda datalogger.

I dont have the car running yet, this weekend, I will get better pics, if its for data logging will I need it, I didnt see any plugs on the ECU to hook it up? Oh and Im pretty sure its not a JDM because I pulled it out of prelude and the engine markings are H22A1 I thought JDM was H22A.
