I dont see how it can compare to a true direct fire COP powered by an ignition box

It is only pre-order right now by some distributors from what I have seen. Release date is said to be June sometime on their sites.

I think it will be interesting to see the results, curious to see how far it takes people without needing to be amplified. Although as said above not sure it can be really a fair comparison to other COP systems out since they are amplified.

Still I would be interested to see how it performs even though I personally went the route of a PRO10 kit from t1.

It just gives you four outputs, can run a CDI or inductive system with it.

Because usually the signal is the issue.

in my limited experience 99% of honda distributor failures are coil, igniter, or secondary ignition componants. i have seen very few sensor failure's in the stock distributor. therefore the hondata COP setup would eliminate 99% of stock distributor ignition problems. in theory lol.

Me too - I am in the market for an Ign setup now and I am not sure what to go with Pro10 kit or this new hondata product.

Because there is no real way to "log" the signal...so you arent really sure what its doing all of the time. With a good aftermarket ECU, you can count every cam, crank or TDC pulse (if you even need all of those for your application) whereas the Honda ECU does a lot of stuff we really dont have access to.

There is nothing WRONG with it realistically, but if you need to be exact...then this is where the short comings of the factory dizzy and ECU come out.

I'm running a .024" gap and not misfiring at 550whp (25psi). Would anyone care to speculate that running a hondata COP would benefit a mild setup like mine or are these generally for big HP cars that have issues blowing out spark?

You may not see it in the power numbers at that level, but you will benefit from better coil charge time and better spark distribution. By eliminating the stock coil, ignitor, cap, and rotor, you are eliminating a large amount of the problems associated with the stock ignition system.
