2017 Honda Civic Si Coupe
I received my FlashPro Friday and flashed the ECU Saturday morning (2:30 am) because I was so excited to see the difference this would make. I have no other upgrades since I've only had the car for 5 months but loved all the reviews I read about the Hondata FlashPro. The flash has made all the difference in the world with this car. This is my Honda vehicle ever (my wife has a 2017 CR-V though) and I love the features and sporty look of the car but I was little underwhelmed with the performance. Don't get me wrong, this is a really nice car with good power and is so much fun to drive, but it seemed tamer than what I anticipated. I was a little intimidated with all the settings and tables, but I spent a week drilling through the forums and tutorials to make sure I had an idea about what I could expect. I loaded the +6 psi flash (added Scramble and Sport Mode on at startup) and took it out for a drive. WOW, this is how the car should have driven from day 1. The torque pins you back in the seat and made this car so much smother all the way through the gears. To test the fuel mileage and how this tune would work for longer drives, I went on a 2 hr drive to Charleston, SC yesterday and still got 38 mpg with plenty of power to pass on two lane back roads. Needless to say I am hooked on the power added through the Hondata FlashPro and am making plans to buy a second unit for the CR-V. Wish this tune had been on the car from the factory.

Sorry for the long post but I wanted to let you all know how satisfied I am with this product. It has totally transformed how my Si drives and has made it so much more fun than it already was. I see what everyone means about the power being addicting. For such a small, light car this flash has been smile inducing at every launch.Thanks for a great product and service!!!!

It is because of this type of feedbacks that I decided to order a flashpro.
I just bought a Civ 1.5, and it will arrive in about 7 days. And today I asked a flashpro from a dealer, and it will take about 10 days to arrive by plane freight.
I will be very happy if I can reflash the car in the first week!!!

Thanks Tommy!

I'd like to add my thanks as well.

Like most, I bought the flashpro for more power. It certainly has delivered on that, which I love. After driving my car a few days, I'm starting to think that the rev hang disable feature is the best thing since coffee! The rev-hang made shifting smoothly (for me anyway) a bit tricky, and was my primary gripe about the car. Now, with the rev hang disabled, I couldn't be happier.

Thank you, Hondata!

Again, thanks for the feedback. The 1.5T certainly comes to life with FlashPro.
