says it will:
(02-04) Honda Civic Si $556.59

don't you need a device to access the piggy back though? why not just get k-pro?

No one uses them because the electronics that run our cars is to complicated to get good results with just a cheap piggy back system. Get the reflash for sure. at only 300 bucks you will see a lot better gains then you will with a piggy back.

its garbage dont get it

piggy backs only control injector duty so knowing this they will work on any car (most offer optional harnesses for ignition ect but for these to control the intricate electronics of a kseries isnt going to happen like cam angles and the ability to switch fuel and timing maps with the cam angle like the stock ecu / hondata can do )

in a nutshell piggybacks like emanage and unichip will hinder more than help your car

read carefully... you end up spending almsot 1,100 on kpro if you do reflash now and upgrade to kpro later.. if you know your geting kpro in the future save up and get it know..just my opinion.
