• Fully dealer compatible - works with all Honda scan tools and equipment.

This is for an ECU reflash - the ECU is not included.  Hondata does not sell direct - the reflash must be purchased from a Hondata dealer. The ECU reflash form must be sent with your ECU.

We do not recommend the use of nitrous or forced induction for this reflash.

Tuning notes

This car was tuned 91 octane pump gas - which we recommend. As the ignition is advanced there will be less tolerance for poorer quality fuels.

The extra low down torque as illustrated on the dyno chart, may in fact be due to the torque multiplication effect of the torque converter. With an auto transmission, very little time is spent at low RPMs. Most medium throttle openings will bring the engine to about 3000 rpm very quickly.

We do not modify the shift points. These are left at stock. The higher rev limit is accessable in the sportshift mode

When intake, headers and exhausts are added, the power peak is moved above the stock Honda redline. Extending the redline in this case, even if the power peak was not increased will increase your average power.

In the dyno chart above, a shift from 6700 rpm to 5500 rpm (stock rev limiter) goes from 132 HP to 122 HP - an average of 127 hp.

A shift from 7200 rpm (raised rev limiter) to 6000 rpm (140 hp to 132) will give you an average of 136 hp - a 9 hp increase over the typical rev range used under full acceleration.

Notes

What if you have modifications?

This program was tuned specifically for a CAI (cold air intake) as they give the best power gains.

Headers have been tested with this program.

Test pipe. This will eventually give you an engine check light telling you have a faulty catalytic converter. We have not seen this error cause any power loss.

If you have nitrous this program will probably not be suitable due to the aggressive ignition advance used.

Will this affect my warranty?

Any increase in RPM limit is at your own risk. If you suffer engine damage that is related to excessive revs Honda / Acura will not cover your warranty.
