Well I used to run Hondata but now I use neptune , car idels better and the dead time on the injectors is gone v's with the hondata and also starts up alot nicer when the motor is dead cold so I would say neptune over hondata any day, but I dont now anything about crome so I cant comment on crome ,

Honestly, before this blows up. Read up on each of the products sites. Then have you or your tuner choose.

Neptune - fairly expensive, only dealers have it for now, but you will be going to one of the better tuners around since they are the only ones that have it. Very solid program, wish I could play with it.

Hondata- The S300 is decent, but a lot of people have had complaints about it. The S200 is kinda out of the loop now, crome has more features anyway.

Crome- Much cheaper. Good programing and is always being updated. Has a good bit of features and you really can't go wrong with it if you are a budget kinda guy.

But the answers to your question mostly lie in the search button in the corner and a nice conversation with your tuner about what he wants to tune. There is a tuner directory in this forum if you just look around a bit.

first off its CROME Cui's ROM Editor

and you just need to look up the features really, crome is being constantly developed and has a wide range of abilitys just like the neptune and hondata. I personally use crome and love it but i wouldnt mind using neptune rtp if i could it seems to have some pretty cool features for nitrous etc etc

Crome gets my vote. I'll be running it on my next build.

They will make a difference with bigger injectors. You can't really "tune" the IAT and ECT for every single car in a one time tuning affair. That is pretty difficult. But IAT and ECT compensation does help.

i've run crome and neptune

i like neptune better, but part of it might be the tuner

neptune feels smoother, faster, better and has more options.

Although I have the utmost respect for that man's insane vehicle... what the hell does that have to do with anything? Are you boostedjeff?

You need to ask yourself
-what am I tuning for
-how extensive do I need to be getting
-how much am I willing to fork out for "features"
-what can my tuner work with and what does he/she like the most that works for me

Then go. I probably will be running Chrome personally, but I have to talk to Vince at RTtuning.

just curious you guys are saying neptune is cheaper then hondata. how cheap are you finding tuners with neptune? the guy in washington wanted over 300 i think. so as long as your only geting it tuned once. and you cant buy it yourself so no self tuning? hondatas just alittle over 500 now. so no one here is rooting for s300? or is it just the price no one likes? just a few questions. i know i have heard the tuner really like neptune over the older stuff like uberdata and crome. thanks

NepTune is on average about half the price of an s200 with boost....
