does US calibration fit other countries delivered FK8

Post by dr_jing »

Hi Guys, I am new to this Hondata tuning scene and I live down under in Australia. When I try to use the flashpro the create new calibration, all I can see is one AUS stock equivalent calibration and all others are US calibration. While I can start from the stock, but some of the US calibrations are more close to my car's current setup. Can I use one of those US calibration for my AUS delivered FK8?

Yes. But you'll find that the Oz fuel is lower octane than the US fuel (even 91) and you may need to retard the ignition a little.

Much appreciated sir, and yes, the best fuel I can get from the pump down here is about the 91 in US, I will adjust the timing accordingly. Thanks again.
