Keep thinking that.

So I guess with all this newfound boost you're going to have, you can lead the way to the next meet.

So it's perfectly fine not to have to recirculate. If it for some reason becomes something i need to do the adapter is only $20.
Hmmmm.. that opposite then hondata has said, the reason they dont have k-pro style things out yet. But then again, I dont trust what Phantams says sometimes anyway, remember they HAVE blown a few engines on their dyno tuning cars(i think they are up to 4 now).

the reason k-pro is not out is because of having a map and maf sensor, dbw and how exposed to the elements are ecu is right>?

I don't think that's the case at all. DBW was never a problem on the NSX, or the TSX, so what makes it such a monster deal on the Si? It definitely has to do with the MAF/MAP sensors.

And now for something completely different: My baby's in the shop right now for the 3rd gear fix. Jimmy (AKA Honda242), is on the case. Hopefully I'll get it back Sat morning sometime.

Will do

Hopefully, I'll have the car back Sat between 10-noon

How could it be taking so long on your parts? Mine had been in a week, and I didn't even know. Jimmy told me that because it's not a full recall, they don't send out notices. I guess they hope the person will forget, and won't come in, thus saving themselves money. They didn't send me a notice about my parts either. Jimmy told me about them being there at the meet.
