You send your ecu into Hondata and pay the ~$900 price. The most expensive price includes an ECU. You need the chipped ecu, the included software and cable, and a computer.

Professional. How do you feel about driving up to Carlisle Pa, for a tune? Probably only an hour away. A shop I'm involved with is known for its dyno tuning. Innovative motorworks Check it out.

Get K-pro it's a great mod for your car

Check out the site I linked you to grab a professional tune. We have an EP3 in the shop getting boosted

$350 for dyno tune. The tune consists of a full tune every thing, such as part throttle, WOT, everything.

For your current mods, tuning is not that difficult. Why don't you go to the Hondata site and download the Kmanager software and play with it. There are also very comprehensive training videos on using Kpro and Kmanager there. Download them, watch them, and see if you think you could handle tuning your car?
