Do your self a favor. Buy a Hondata s300 or neptune rtp system. Plug it in, start to tune :-)

Read over http://www.phearable.net/tech/efibeginnerguide.html to educate your self on the subject.

It doesn't work like that. Neptune doesn't work with the ostrich.
You must use the demon. The package is $399

RTP is the way to go. If you already have an Ostrich you can trade that in towards an RTP system. See www.hrtuning.com.

Basic WOT tuning is very simple. Building basemaps is where things get complicated. K series start to intimidate newbies with cam angle tuning and stuff as well, but with your basic H/B/D's it's not hard at all specifically with user friendly S300.

Do yourself a favor, read up on all the DIY's you can find in regards to tuning. I assure you, once you understand the science behind it, it's VERY simple to do WOT tuning on your own car.
