hondata refllash 50% price drop

[oldschoolimport]

Hopefully this means a kPro price drop ... Let's petition Hondata for a $5-600 KPro? lol

that'll never happen. they have the lock on k-series engine management at the moment, so there is no reason to drop the price of k-pro. the reflash price drop is just to get folks on the path to k-pro. piss on hondata!

So how does this work? I order it and they gimme an address to send my ecu to and then they send it back a week later?

Now reflash is very worth it to anyone with boltons. What i dont get.
PAy 990 for kpro
Pay 290 for reflash + 500 for upgrade to kpro = 790 for kpro?

Hondata math fail?

nah, just found this:

Price Description
$500 Upgrade cost for existing Hondata reflash prior to March 22 2010 (ECU must be sent to Hondata or authorized installer).
$800 Upgrade cost for existing Hondata reflash prior to March 22 2010 (ECU must be sent to Hondata or authorized installer).
$995 Retail price (ECU must be sent to Hondata or authorized installer).
$1595 K-Pro with new Honda PRB ECU based off US RSX-S

seems like hondata just slashed their prices for the reflash for around 50%

$295 for reflash is very tempting...but I'm not sure if the extra cost in gas is worth the gains. Now if only they would slash their kpro prices...

What do u mean by the extra price in gass?

I think he was referring to the price of Premium gas, you need to run 91+ with the reflash

^^^^^you need to run 91+ octane with the reflash.

I wish that price was available back when I bought k-pro. I was going back and forth and figured why pay 595 and then another 400 later on to upgrade when I purchased k-pro for 869 shipped. It would have made my decision real easy, but I had that lingering feeling I would go beyond i/rh/e and I was right, so in the end K-Pro was a good decision. However, from a resale standpoint I sure hope that the price of k-pro doesn't drop like the reflash did. Not that I plan on selling anytime soon, but for years people have been able to turn around and sell their kpro-ed ecu's for $800+.

[AUTiger]

wow, if I read that correctly then I would just buy the reflash, then a week later upgrade to k-pro. Clubrsx/Clubep3 is selling them for 290. Then the cost to upgrade is 500. Then basically you can get k-pro for 790, ain't that some shit.

maybe jumping on this when i get my tax money....
