K100 for dc5

[X8TEENX]

i got a quick question since there is a groupbuy for hondata k100 wif a half price list.:eek:

the question is does anyone try k100 or flash before?any problem or outcome with tat??cause i m perth buyer so curious about the k100 flash might not really suit my car....my car actually had I/H/E.

The K100 is put into your existing ECU and then it is loaded up with a reflash. That reflash has to be tuned for your car. So yes, unless your car is on the dyno being tuned, it won't be suitable. So budget in another $500-800 for tuning, and I think you need to find someone who is a registered hondata tuner.

cause i contact wif hondata dealer and they told me since there is no local tuner for that...so they will put a similar map wif those mod. that i told them... is that better?

If the car is stock other than I/H/E, it might work. The only problem is that the tune can be too rich or too lean because each mod is different. If they go for the safe , rich setting, then your car will be alright but will just use more petrol. If it is lean, then you will have a problem in the long run.
