First promise that you will not organize your buddies to phone us in shifts about the Fit or start online polls.

The Fit ECU is programmable and a reflash is technically possible. We have many other projects to round off before considering new vehicles, and it is too early to say if the Fit would be something that we develop a product for. Have you considered the possibility that reprogramming the ECU for the Fit might produce no power gain? Even if a product is technically possible doesn't necessarily mean that a product will be developed.

First let me state that I am not his buddy, and second I will not start a poll.

What kind of a response is this? "Have you considered the possibility that reprogramming the ECU for the Fit might produce no power gain?"

Why would you even purchase a fairly $$$ tuning device and slap it on a stock engine? You would have some modifications that would warrant a tune, or at least I hope you would. It wouldn't be the brightest thing to purchase a device to tune a stock engine imo. Now tell me this, with the ability to tune an ecu with lets say Hondata, you would be able to compensate for, let's say, a supercharger or turbo, or even N20. How could you NOT gain from that?

Now I do understand that you have many other projects on the table that would need to be finished before taking on another one, but don't go making strange statements like that. Kids these days, they are soo impressionable!

P.S. So when do you predict you will answer the tuner industries call for a Honda Fit tuning product? ;)
