03+ K24 Accords... need your help

[outersquare]

btw hondata, your TSX guide has an error, the accord and TSX manifold aren't the same. The TSX is RBB, the accord is RAA.

any updates on k24a4 reflash plans?

[outersquare]

now there is a s2k reflash that adds no peak power, and a TL reflash in the works, but nothing still for our cars, lol.

we need to gather ourselves at Hondata front yard with picket signs haha.
"WE DEMAND!"

has anyone offered up a test car for them? that might be a reason also, the reason why alot of other reflashes get done so fast is because hondata gets their hands on a test car fairly quickly...

Would they willingly put it on R&D if we provide one? Hondata hasn't even showed any interest in our cars :?

well try and shoot em some emails to find out. my hands are tied i'm in freakin mississippi...

okay, skunk2 just released cams for our car. something has got to give soon, aftermarket cams would be pointless with no way of tuning. unless someone wants to cross their fingers and use stage 1 cams on stock ecu and maybe a vafc. we need k-pro/reflash now more than ever...

if hondata needs a test car, I'd be interested but my car is an automatic MAF. I work in long beach, nearby torrance.

mods are as stands, fujita cai, tsx intake manifold, hondata gasket, dc sports header.

It is unlikely that we are going to do anything for the R18. The decision whether we make a product is based on product demand and gains for stock and slightly modified vehciles, demand for forced induction tuning, and technical hurdles in making a reflash/programmable system.

Given that the R18 market will only be a faction of the 06 Si market, and the gains on a stock R18 engine are only a couple of hp, yet even a reflash would cost the same for us to develop of the 06 Si or 06 S2000, it does not make economic sense to do anything for the R18.

List as the criteria for a reflash.

I recall based on k24a4 franks with kpros there are good gains, but of course hondata would know best.

technical hurdles must be coming down, since by their own admission the 05 tsx uses the same style ecu as accord. Some accords have MAF sensors, but so do k20z3 civic SIs and they almost have a product for that now.

any updates hondata would be great :lol:

evidence of "untapped potential"


RBB vs RAA

145 whp / 144 ft-lbs
tsx intake manifold, dc sports ceramic header, fujita intake, hondata heatshield gasket, throttle body coolant bypass

136 whp / 131 ft-lbs
dc header, deleted intake resonator

http://www.csupomona.edu/~jcwang3/dyno2.gif


128 whp / 124 ft-lbs
deleted intake resonator only

btw, i'm pretty sure the AFR on the most recent one is messed up, a buttpipe sniffer was used and it kept slipping out cause our stock exhausts point downward

[brandtson]

bump.

i would totally kill for an accord ecu reflash!

[GPerlAccord]

need ecu reflash or kpro. This thread sure is going pretty slow.
