That's pretty much it.

Kpro is where you take your ECU out of your car and send it to Hondata. They weld on a USB port and give you software. You can then control many aspects of your engine via your laptop.

Hondata also makes a reflash. Again you take your ECU out of your car and send it to them. This time, they simply re-program your ECU with a standard program (better than the OEM one from Honda). This can NOT be adjusted as there is no USB port to constantly re-program it with.

The advantage of KPRO over a reflash is that you can fine tune certain aspects of your engine to work best with what mods you may have on your car. With a reflash, everything is set at one level and may not work best with what mods you have.

That's the quick and dirty. I don't have either nor have I ever had either... this is just what I read from the hondata website.
