DFI is a good system for the money.

If you don't mind the wiring, and setting up the system, the Haltech is the best for the money. infinitely more tunable than the hondata, change stuff on the fly, no chip burning, no extra box, no emulator, etc... and for damn near the same price as a 4b

i recommend power fc.i have had a haltech and a power fc.if you are going to drive the car on the street,the power fc is the way to go.my car now runs like it came with this turbo and i can abuse it all i want.when i bought it i gave them the mods i had and they programmed it pretty close.i had to change the injector pulse because they use a different brand of injectors.once i did that it ran almost flawless.we took it to the dyno and made only a few minor adjutments in less than 3 hours and it made 415 whp right off the bat!i have since made a few adjustments and made 440whp and drive it every day.
when i had the haltech,it made good power but drivability was not good at all.it never idled right.i had to idle it at 2000rpm for it to be worth a crap.i also melted two sets of pistons with it.i am not saying that it won't work,just that the power fc is much more simple.i have learned alot since i had the haltech and if i had it now, things would probably be much different but i have found a combo that is simple and reliable and i love it.before i get flamed, i am not bashing the haltech,i think it is a great system.i just want to share my love for the power fc.
