Bumping this up for buyers in the market for a Hondata K-PRO
This should be made a sticky.
same with the S300 scam
We have identified Benny Tran of BYP Racing and Developments as an importer and seller of counterfeit K-Pros and S300s. DO NOT buy any Hondata products from this person. If you have purchased any Hondata products from this person, please check them for authenticity.

I've just checked my KPRO sold by BYP Racing & Developments, it is LEGIT. I know its not the best pic, but if u zoom in, you can clearly see there is a space between Honda and ta

Yes the BYP boys have found that they have been issued fake KPRO and S300. I'm sure they wouldnt do it intentionally. Good on them for refunding and getting genuine KPRO's back for their customers! One thing that sets them apart from other KPRO Suppliers is their customer servce. Please PM me if you want answers, I'm more then happy to share. I believe the thing to take away from this thread is whoever sells you a KPRO/S300, check the actual board itself, and make sure everything is correct. If your lazy/stupid enough to buy a fake one, so be it.Quote:

How do you talk about customer service and in the same breath call the customer lazy and stupid?
If a product is marketed as genuine, then it is reasonable for the customer to assume that they are getting genuine parts, especially when they're dealing with a "legit" business. The onus is on the business to ensure that they are selling genuine parts.
Try telling Fair Trading that the Customer is just stupid and lazy so they deserve what they got.

They sold the product to customers under the impression is is legit product and placing trustin them
You cant put the blame / fault on the customer because it was fault and call them lazy for not checking
If you went to buy Macdonalds and order a big Mac and went home found they gave a cheese burger instead, is it your fault for not checking or Maccas fault?

people in US would open up ecu cover upon sale to check for burnt boards, not fake boards.
so when you bought your kpro from byp did you open up the cover and used this as reference?
did you check it on the spot or took their word as a guarantee?
