What Computer for a K24a3

[tec it]

Hi,

I have just purchased a K24 motor and am looking into computers to get for it, just wondering if anyone had any ideas into what i should look for. Looking for a solid street tune while also being able to head for the track if that makes any difference....sorry for noobness.

Cheers Marty

Hondata Kpro

Haltech.
Better support if anything goes wrong with the ECU. More features. Easier to tune. Go talk to Adrian from TODA. He personally likes the haltech better than the hondata.

But hondata is proven to work pretty sweet. Seeing as its made for hondas only.
Depends what youre after.

Kpro is so much easier though, going haltech, it's only really necessary if you have a non standard motor which is pretty, nuts. Even then, i'd be using a VIPEC.

Really? It's odd that it's so difficult when the Haltech just plugs into the factory DC5 S, R, EP3 or K-swap loom, turn the key & the car runs ay?
Don't think the LinkG4 / VIPEC does that does it... heck the K-Pro doesn't even do that either...
What's even more strange about the Haltech vs Hondata is the live tuning with no upload time. Damn... what to do with all that time saved...
Hmmm, maybe do a better job... Damn! I must have blinked when the hard stuff happened... LOL
Using a Sport 1000 takes a little more effort but it's still easy... Vtec, VTC etc all works... Just can't do the damn fly-by-wire on CL9/FN2
Still... don't knock it till you try it...

Anyway, enough shit stiring
You won't go wrong choosing either the Hondata or Haltech systems as both are very good...

I reckon with the research and development of the Kpro, you cant beat it. Unless you have a 10k budget for an ECU, the next best thing is probably a MOTEC.

Haltech eat major dick lol. I hate their software. Thats why I hate it.

I don't know what their new stuff is like though.

Ok.... Gosh I didn't expect such a balanced response Chris.
Infact it's right up there with being subjected to the magnificence of Benny's "Recon"
LOL

To the OP,
I've used both, both are very good products. Neither without issue.
The Hondata's major downfall is tune time with troublesome upload & limited set-up parameters.
Haltech's only real disadvantage is price, that said you actually get a new ecu with the Haltech.
Anyway...

You know me Adrian, mr opinion .

HKS Fcon Vpro, if you can find anyone that knows how to tune it.

What is this obsession with fcon?
