i guess this this is a chip that will add like 29 horses? looks fake, but that's a lot of money to be fake.

x2, the reflash is nice, but why spend 600 on it when you could drop a few more and get kpro new or find one used for around the same price. Kpro dose not really lose value so when your ready you can sell it again. It's kinda like buying a hooker, you only get her once and after that she is gone. But get a asian sex slave and she is yours till the end.

it depends on your mods. if you just have intake, headers, and exhaust reflash would be suffice. but if you plan to add more later on etc. s/c, turbo, rbc manifold then its better off to get kpro. kpro you can adjust when vtec kicks in.

Don't get the uni-chip it is a waste. A local shop had one in stock and let me try it out on my base rsx. I had an Injen SRI and a HKS Hi-Power cat back. With the uni-chip I made 138 whp and 121 TQ. Without the uni-chip I made 145 WHP and 128 tq. And the uni-chip was running the reflash meant for a intake and exhaust.

Cliff Notes: You loose power with the Uni-Chip.
