IMO i wouldnt get any of them.. they run pig rich and run aggressive timing.. usually u gotta have specific mods to get anything out of the ECU..
And Im sure you know that No matter what 2 engines with the same exact mods will run completely different. and these chips are 1 set program so there is no possible way its going to make you happy with the kind of money you are going to spend on them.
You can buy a ECU From someone on the board and have it chipped and run decent. But You need some Crome, Uber or Hondata and a Tuner to get the Maximum Performance out of your car.

I say just go buy hondata and have your car tuned w/ that. it's the only way you're gonna see those numbers you expect. Also I wouldn't trust any of those chips that they're gonna put in your ecu.

damn, all that $ on a type R and ur gonna use a $20 1 program advanced fuel map based single program???
Despite not using Hondata, I have a belief that it's a waste of money, get a burnable chip, install it, and run Crome or some other free program, serve just as good as Hondata..

Re: (si0385.)
You say hondata is too expensive compared to the other people... You have to remember you get what you pay for, and hondata is top of the line. I guarantee you won't see the numbers with that other company like you would w/ hondata.

numbers are based on the tuner. in the hands of an expert, Crome/Uberdata/Hondata will produce the same numbers.
IMO Crome is the best way to go. For the price of a hondata setup you can have Crome Pro and a wideband setup that you can do anything with.
