Default K-Pro or Reflash

I am really close to getting my ECU reflashed from Hondata, but I'm wondering if it would be better to get K-Pro for a few more bucks. I'm only looking to run bolt-ons such as I/H/E and IM heatshields and little things that don't void my warranty. I just wanna know if either will void the manufacturer's warranty. And what the pros are of having K-Pro rather than just the reflash.

Thanks,
Bob

get the reflash now and when hondata releases there programable ECU they will credit you for the purchase of the reflash. so either way you win.

That is stated on the Hondata website, I believe.

You can run KPRO... you would just have to change a few things.

You can use Kpro on 2006 & Up Civic Si. You will have to rewire your car to accept a dual ECU set up and there is no plug and play solution for this set up.

That decision is up to the retailer as Hondata doesn't sell to the public.

Yeah, I'm not going with any forced induction. Just bolt ons. So even piggyback systems wouldn't be any better than a reflash. Reflash it is. DC header, Sk2 70mm Exhaust, Hondata IMG, Injen CAI should be good for 195+ WHP. A 14 second daily driver. All I want is a little more power and torque.
