Hondata Reflash!!

tsxjimIV · 03-21-2009, 01:40 PM

Hey guys just want to know who has had this done to their TSX and also just wanted to know if it was like night and day compared to stock ecu. I alreay have Injen CAI and headers (04 TSX). Just give me some feed back and let me know if it is worth the investment for increased power.

here are some videos that i did i should really make a new 1, maybe ill do that later this week.

I love it example at 05 injen cai vs my car 05 at w/reflash with 5 guys in it each are full size males. I still was pulling with hondata between gear 45-80.
My friend had a bit of a head start and we were neck and neck on the freeway. I manage to pull past him around 65- and was way gone by 80.

I drove the hondatas tsx in stock, reflashed and k-pro version, I didnt felt much diference between the stock and reflash but k-pro blow me away

Really stock and reflash no difference? 0_o?
i'm sure you didn't drive it at the top end.

Were these autos? There was a night and day difference with my 6 speed.

agreed there was a noticeable difference for my 6spd. Response improved and acceleration definitely a noticeable difference from stock. Vtec engagement at lower RPM also noticeable. Its a great mod.. worth doing if you have the $$..

I still say that its a night and day even for autos, but its not as great as mt of course we all know why.

Other than that the dealers think my car has never been reflashed till i tell the tech to drive it up 5000 rpms. ( had a banging sound) turned out it was the control arm.

K-pro > ALL. I am saving up for it, but I agree with others that reflash sure makes a difference. One thing to note is that reflash's effect is well improved by cat/header/intake.

I haven't received any response in my other thread, so I'd like to ask my qst here:

-I'm just wondering if there are any potential problems that could emerge when changing the ecu to a new unit entirely?

-is there a way to verify that an ECU has hondata already? I'm looking for a way to separate what may be my psychological reaction to the 'reflash' and the actual reflash. So far I've thought of comparing the rev limit moving from 7300 to 7600?

TSX_WS · 03-23-2009, 02:06 AM

^ ok.... if u just want to compare before/after effect, u need an 06 ECU from a TSX with the same type of transmission. Take it to the dealer to have the ECU synced with your key and immobilizer (~ $120). Then u are good to go....

2K6TSX · 03-23-2009, 02:11 AM

yeah it is the same type and transmission, an 06 6MT..aside from a potential tranny issue, is there anything else I should be concerned about? Thanks btw
