    I WANT TO TUNE MY EURO!!!! melbourne

    Heaps of threads on different ECU and piggy backs and so on, but no clear answer.

    Clearly, there is benefit of tuning the EURO, but what is the best way to go about it?

    I dont want to lose my cruise control.

    What do you guys recommend and why? Rough cost? Place to tune it?
    VAFC2?
    Hondata?
    K pro?
    Emanage?

    im willing to tune and report back with results, the good and bads of whatever way we go in regards to ecu!

    So what ecu!??

    hondata reflash from TSX, but you will have check engine light with EVAP errors (just ignore them)
    E-manage or VAFC2 just waist of money and no any good gains
    Only these options available now if you don't want to lose cruise control.
    Best gains you can get only from Hondata K-Pro + K-tuned dual harness ! But no cruise or VSA.

    You can remove Hondata reflash CEL's by replacing the your EVAP canister and sensor, as well as the fuel tank pressure sensor with USDM sensors.

    I got the workshop manual on how to do that.. Somewhere, the parts are $250-300 dollars.

    Its come down to two units:
    Haltech interceptor-plenty of positive reviews but few negative reviews too.
    Greddy ultimate- tuner that i spoke to prefers this unit, and i read i lengthy thread on this particular unit and feedback was positive.

    Thoughts please before i buy...?

    Out of them 2 the haltech.

    What mod done to the car and what are you planning to do.

    If you planning more then intake headers and exhaust i would get neither

    some folks in the honda circle nicke name haltech as "craptech" which I always find amusing.
    Greddy is more 'tuner' friendly cause a LOT of people use it across many brandsof cars.

    hondata reflashed TSX ECU is best one for such mods, you gain more with it then with Greddy - I did such compare long time ago And you pay less for reflashed ECU then greddy + harness

    Hondata is 1250.
    Greddy is 500+600 tune so pricewise its the same.

    With hondata, do you lose vtc or cruise control? And hondata come
    Pre tuned doesnt it? Also read few people had probles using them so
    I dont know...
