i think you meant reflash.. but its all good.. i would say it depends on what you are looking for.. i mean i/h/e make the car sound sweet as hell.. but the reflash is good too.. imo i would go with the i/h/e and wait for better programs to come out for the ecu.. but that is just my opinion...

currently for the NA guys hondata is on point and for the bolt on mods the reflash is one of the best bangs for the buck to harness the power.

IMO

An intake and race header is your bang for the buck - the flash does very little in terms of power. I've had the AEM CAI on our car for 9 months through hot and cold weather on both long (500 mile) and short trips and I've never gotten a CEL once. The Injen piece sounds more aggressive and reportedly makes a bit more peak power. Both are still nice choices :)

I agree with you about the AEM CAI. I've had for about the same time, and I've never had the CEL once. I love it. The sound is awesome.

Go with the intake, reflash and exhaust. I think you will get more bang for your buck.

if comfort=increased midrange torque, then yes you are correct.

definetely not true I gain as much as 30 hp from the reflash in the midrange with just a intake and exhaust and hope to push that over more with the RH
