But, I really do want the mid-range gains that hondata gives us! I know I need somethin such as at least an intake, header, exaust, for hondata to work. So, I am considering just gettin the header, or waiting for another header to come out for our cars, and then getting the hondata reflash, with just the header as my mod. I really would like to wait for k-pro too. So, I just want advice on whether I should continue on with my desire for the ecu reflash. Thanks.  |
Nope, don't do it. Why get the reflash if it actually will hurt your performance since you wont have the minimum requirements to give you those gains. Personally I think the intake isn't a tiny gain. Upgrading to an Injen Cai alone without an exhaust mod would gain you about 13HP and app.
7lbs of torque. Adding a free flowing exhaust will further enhance your overall performance. I would do those mods first before even remotely thinking about a Hondadata reflash which in my opinion is a total waste of money if you are not doing the mods that are required to realize a gain.
