is there a way to have the simple tunablility of a hondata s300 without the big price tag?

 

NepTune RTP (www.hrtuning.com) or eCtune.

 

Neptune is your friend!

 

 

There isn't anything cheaper than that? I think it's basic programming and it shouldn't be more than $200 imo.

 

Well you can go cheaper, but there is a reason why its cheaper.

 

It's not basic programming, but with that logic you should be able to make a tuning software yourself in no time!

In any case, with NepTune you're currently only paying $149 for the software license and code base programming. You're also buying the hardware (A Demon Real-Time board is $250 from Moates.net) to do the real-time tuning and datalogging with. If you already have an Ostrich ($175 new) and Hulog ($30 new) for datalogging, go with eCtune. Then it's only $199 for the software.

If you're looking to cheap out, get Crome. It's free to make tunes and you can use free datalogging software, but you'll need a chip burner ($75. Damn, even the free stuff costs money!). Or you can pay the $150 for a Crome Pro license and datalog within the software. You'll also get to do real-time tuning with an Ostrich ($175 new). Crome is not in the same league as the rest of the products listed here. You get what you pay for. Good luck to you.

 

yea crome dont seem as advanced as i thought it was lol im just being cheap lol thanx

 

It's all good. Money is tight for just about everyone, even me.

Just explore the options and see what you and/or your tuner feel will be best.

 

koo i just want to learn how to tune and im not really that tight with my local tuner for him to just let me mess around on his dyno like that lol

 

Understandable.
