im in the market right now to buy one, and was just wondering what mods were suggested under a low budget, and n/a route . i was considering the hondata reflash but i don't know where the immobilizer is, and was wondering how much it would cost extra to drive down to a shop to get the whole reflash takin care of? and has anyone used the hondata intake gasket and what they thought of it

 

Hondata is hands down the essential best power mod for N/A on the EP3.

On Hondata's site there are exact instructions with pictures of how to remove the immobilizer and ECU... it takes a half-hour at the most, but they fail to mention something important: DISCONNECT THE BATTERY BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING!

Anyways, if you're in california, you can get it done at their shop, but pay taxes. If you're not in california, you can use any dealer (all they do is send you the pre-paid shipping labels) the price is always the same.

If you want a good dealer, I recommend jdkindle@kindleracing.com. Jeramy is one of the fastest N/A RSX drivers, he knows K-series, and he's an honest and dependable Hondata dealer

 

get some real suspension and a bigger rear sway, then real brake pads, intake, B-pipe replaced...etc....

 

I dont have it, but Hondata FIRST
2. Intake
3. Header/exhaust #4?
4.(?) lowering springs or coilovers (D2 is the best for the money 32 way ajustable)
5. Sway bars, tortion bars,
6. strut bars.
7. gut the car ( free)
8. type-s head swap...OR type-s 6 speed with type-r final drive to keep you in the power band....!!!!

and wheels and tires and body are your deal...thats my build up plan...so far i am still on #3 hahaha

 

If you want go fast, CAI and Hondata.

Suspension, Tein basics and the JDM 22mm CTR rear sway.

 

id like the car to be quiet i had an eg with b16a with full exhaut i couldn't stand it anymore. do the headers and catback really add that much power, and i also have to keep it street legal i just want a decent performing car over stock nothing to crazy. so far i plan on the
comptech ice box
hondata intake gasket
hondata reflash
and maybe a drop of about and inch with slipstreams
just wondering if anyone has this kinds set up

 

bump

 

I suggest to do your list the other way around.
Suspension, tires , brake pads.
Learn how to drive your car that way, then add the power
