      In most other cars and previous gen Hondas (I think?) you had to replace the ECU to change your engines programming.

      Our ECU's are flash programmable, that is they store the engine maps in memory which can be overwritten and in fact is overwritten by the Hondata *flash*.

      You do not need to change out the ECU, Hondata just change how it is programmed and return your original ECU to you.

      Flashable memory has been arround for a long time now. It is unique compared to previous gens (OBD1) of ECU in that it allows you to write to it numerous times, without chip replacement. Most previous gens were just EEPROM type memory. The chip would need to be ultravioletly errased in order to be written to again. (~17vdc)
      Flashable memory allows the processor chip to be modified endlessly on the fly, and retains its last saved configuration. hth

      I just ditched my CAI and midpipe and plan on running Hondata on an otherwise stock engine. I'll let you guys know how it feels once I get the cash...and the flash.

      good idea...cspeed on clubsi did a group buy. I think they have some relation with clubsi. I think the site is www.c-speed.com something like that
      ah here it is: http://www.c-speedracing.com/frame.php

      There will not be a group buy. Club RSX already tried to do a group buy but Hondata would have none of it. If you buy it through clubRSX, then you will receive a pre-addressed box with a paid overnight delivery to Hondata and back to you for $600. Pretty good deal compared to alternatives in my opinion as you don't have to pay for shipping yourself and you should have your car back on the road in 3 business days.

      Luckily there's an authorized tuner about an hour south of me. SFP...(I hope that they're good.)

      Who here will go for the increased rev limit? I think I will - I mean you don't have to use it it will just be nice that it is there.

      Steve...I believe that Cybernation in Ft. Lauderdale is also an authorized dealer. I'd check into it...heck of a lot closer than Miami.

      Yeah, this is very good news. Time to start saving. Oh wait, I've been trying and haven't saved a penny yet. Doh!:(

      I would like a new rev limit too but something may blow up if I don't have a new rpm gauge to look at. I wonder how high is the limit? 8K?
