For best results naturally aspirated ECUs should be tuned to each individual engine setup and forced induction ECUs must be tuned. Each engine combination is different and this is the only way to get optimum results for your application ...

the nearest dyno to me is a 12 hour drive/5hour ferry ride/ another 4hour drive away

Holy cow, in 21 hours I can drive all the way across the country. Then again, your in Canada... Roads dont go straight there do they?

Perhaps their is a Hondata dealer in your area that is willing to tune your ...

Did you look at the website at all? It shows screen shots of the software. Its pretty clear how it is tuned and how simple it is to select a region of the map and add or subtract timing or fuel.

This is basicly the reason I sold my J&S. Tach wouldnt work for me so I sold it while it was worth something. Not a bad unit, but having a working tach was more important to me. (I also tried the resistor trick, it didnt seem to help either.)

99.9% chance your problem is the serial cable your using. I had to buy 3 different types of cable before I could get mine to work. Only one type will work with the system. I wish I knew which it was or i'd share that with you.
