i would also like to know.

looks like the ratio of people loving it to people hating it is about 50:50.

some say "its the best, user friendly"

others say "i cant get this to work, there are bugs and errors"..

so i honestly dont even know.

Bullshit - i have an s300 - and its the best $717 i've put in my car. Its great. All the bugs have been fixed - so if anyone says there are bugs, they're wrong. The updated version came out september 27th......

I say go for it - its a great product. GO to Hondata.com and download their software. Its great. The AEM Ems only can do a few extra things - things that aren't worth the $300+ more dollars. You'll definately be satisfied with the Hondata s300

Yeah 595 is just for the unit - you have to pay to get it soldered into a p28 or whatever ecu. I paid $717 for the unit, soldering and socketing, and the p28 ecu - I have a prelude so I had to change ecus.

Yep Lightning - thats who i purchased mine from - $717 shipped. Great damn deal.

Yeah - if you already have a p28 or p72 ecu - i say go for it. Can't beat that price.

Being able to run a distributorless ignition system isn't worth $300+?

well it depends how much power are u trying to make? also for that matter to run that it's gonna cost alot more them 300. dont forget u gotta get a "good" multi-channel cdi $500+, hall affect sensor kit. $$$, 2 or 4 coils.

No its not worth $300 because its not necessary At all.
I could see if it would help in some way , but it doens't - it just gets rid of something.
