Hondata, or v-afc would be good.

Chipping your ECU is rather expensive to get it done right.

I have the first chip, but i still haven't installed it, but i will sometime to see if it really works. I bought it from the same guy and same description.

Most HP to Dollar ratio comparisons will say that it's not worth it, but then again, that goes to speak for most of modifications.
