You're not tuning Neptune. You're tuning your motor. Neptune is simply an editor / software interface to allow you todo this. The Honda community is spoiled to have something as nice and easy to use as Neptune. We're having to totally rewire, figure out cam/crank pattern/trigger wheels, cam/crank settings, injector timing, coil dwell, etc, etc for two vehicles right now. Only if it was as simple as chip/socket the ecu and tuning!

 

unfortunately that is the price to pay for a professionally tuned setup and no offense to you but from your comments in this thread i suggest you save up to pay a professional. while you could learn to tune yourself, one wrong move means your motor is blown. trying to get a crome basemap for $150 is not going to be safe for boosting. when it comes to tuning you definitely get what you pay for.

and since you are from indian head, why not venture over to InlinePro, Ive heard good thing about their tuner Brian Fisher

 

Amen to that. I am in the same process right now. We definitely are spoiled

 

lol, i know ur tuning the motor, and the thread says im all motor, turbo has to many problems, inline pro is no good, i go to tempest racing

 

Turbo has no problems. It's the people that put together the cars that have the problems and don't do them right

 

right right right, im a muscle car guy, i like all motor, im just tuning my import to run better, a hobby

 

tempest is a great shop as well, joe tuned my car and it runs great. my point is, take it to a professional tuner and get it tuned.

chipped ecu - $150
hondata s300 or neptune - $400-500
tune - $400-500

so your looking at $1000 give or take. unfortunately thats the price to play the game.

if you get a basemap or "pretuned" chip it will just be a ballpark. your car will run but not at its full potential and might even run poorly.
