Icon7 K pro Flash pro is there a difference? if so what ?

Im new to honda tech and I'm looking to make the next big mod to my 08 civic si. But i know modding the cpu is going to get me the best performance for my dollar. So I'm just looking for a little more information on Kpro/or flashpro or even if there is other software out there that i could benefit from.

the k20z3 can only take HONDATA Reflash or Flashpro. Flashpro being the advance one. Its a tuning system. We can also use Cobb assesport but they are know to give our car viruses. but before you do any of these things.... start of with the basic i/h/e. to get any beneficiary out of ecu tinning.

If you've never tuned before I'd suggest you let someone knowledgeable do it. You can easily screw something up.

If you're calling the ECU a 'cpu' (quite a large difference) then you probably are not qualified to tune your vehicle. I have a degree in Computer Engineering and even I paid someone else to tune my S2000. There are certain things you don't want to **** up - your car being one of them.
