anyone know if a reflashed PRB will work in the EP w/k20a2? if it's already syncd?

Damn 295$ for a reflash... I got a AEM V2 installed and a race header laying around... Anyone know if this "sale" is gonna be there for long or did they just drop the price of reflash for good?
Just an update, the reflash is badass. The midrange power/torque gain is very noticeable. On the highway at 65 in 5th gear, you put your foot down and just pass cars like its your job. Also the reflash DOES NOT negatively affect your gas mileage, I noticed no difference. On the highway if you feel like getting on it, just throw it in 3rd, bang through 4th and your going 100+ in a few seconds. IN A HONDA CIVIC lol.
since having the reflash the only car ive really "raced" was an rx-8 which I took by 2+ cars. I also took a 3.5 liter v6 maxima at the track by nearly half a second. As well an a 5.0 fox body on the track and a few on the street. After buying all the bolt ons and the kpro reflash for the ep3, the mod that has made the biggest difference has deff been the kpro reflash.
there is no difference, it will work on an 05 just the same as 02-04
Not true. Like I said, if you compare at the actual ecu numbers, the 05s ARE different than the 04s. I have already called Hondata about this and confirmed this with them. 05 ecus will NOT work with the reflash!
If you really want the reflash and you have an 05, your only option is to get a 02-04 ECU (around $150), bring it to the dealer to resync it ($100) and send it in. The problem is at that point, you are already back to the Pre-discount REFLASH price...so you might as well get the KPRO.
Yes I know it sucks. I'm in the same boat as you :(
So is this the final verdict for the 05 reflash?? No one has a reflashed 05? If so I'm SOL as well... :shrug:
question to the gurus of the ecus...if i were to get my current stock 02 ecu and have it modded for kpro, would i still be able to use that kpro'd ecu with a k20a swap?
im thinking about getting this for my car...
on the hondata website says 2002-2004 Civic Si K20A3 Civic Si does this not include the 05 model?? anyone know
Thank goodness i read this. I was about to get the reflash in my '05. Not having a reflash for the '05 is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard! I am totally bummed now as I do not want/need KPro. Come on Hondata. I thought you were better than this!
wow common :( seriously
I would contact them first, there is no difference in 02-04 and 05 ecu's. It is probably just a miss print. I know there are 05's with a reflash
has anyone done a before and after on lets say 30-70 or 0-100 speed? yes we've come up to the conclusion that 0-60 is mostly affected by eliminating the need to shift to 3rd gear but there is also a 12hp gain so im wondering how it would affect acceleration at other speeds. any info would be helpful because im now saving up for this as i am in the process of installing my rh. thankss
