would it be a good idea to get a hondata system installed on my car,or should i wait till after some forced induction is on my car.plus does the hondata come pre-programmed or does it have to be tuned by a dealer?does any body know of any pre-programmed aftermarket ecu's.thanks peace out

you dont need hondata unless you're making like 250hp or more... i have lots of friends making between 220-240 whp on chipped ECUs... your gonna need to get the hondata tuned by someone that really knos what they're doing, the car probably wont even start with out it tunned

The vafc wont help you much at all now; and the hondata is way off in the horizon for you considering your amount of mods.
