Default hondata ep3.....

last night i met up with a friend of mine that has an ep3. he has an injen cai, dc race header, and hondata reflash. i wanted to race him to see how i can keep up with a hondata equipped ep3 and see if its worth getting or not. on my car i have aem cai, dc shorty header, and hks hi power exhaust. so we go to a "track" where everyone usually goes to race around here and line up. im thinking hes just gonna walk on me thru every gear. so my friend flags and we're off. off the line i have him by a car and i just keep pulling on him more n more till the end of the 1/4 mile by like 2.5 cars. so im thinking wtf? he should be able to beat me, right? what do you guys think? is hondata really not worth having on an ep? or just poor driving skill? well needless to say, i was proud of my car

personally i havent driven a hondata'd ep3, but u and his car should have been neck and neck at the 1.4 as hondata doesnt really make that much of a difference at the track. u are just a better driver. and i think hondata benefits more on highway driving.

You should switch cars and try again, just to see.

well some food for though without hondata i went to a track also and raced a guy that had an aem cai and dc catback on an 04 ep and i just had an injen cia and a nextgear img from a 40 punch he took me by a car but from a 60 punch i took him by a car. but i feel as if you were to drive his car and he drive your i think that the hondata ep should take urs

true. i am a better driver than he is. im gonna ask a friend of mine to let me use his k-pro and i'll run him again, just to see what the difference is becuase i wouldnt want to let him drive my car. btw mine is an 03, his ep is an 05, kinda irrelevant

He can't drive, that's all.
Reflash is worth every penny.

^^^ What he said.

If he can trust you with his car, you could trust him with yours.

yea u have a point there. but i think it would be better if we were both on hondata because he has poor driving skill. i wouldnt want him to grind my gears or something. by any chance, does anyone know if u can save the current tuned program on a k-pro to upload a diff program, then later upload the tuned program again? if that didnt make sense, let me know
