Alternatives for Tune

[Anthony E.]

Hello, i recently discovered (in a hard bad way (I bought it from Vit)) that my ECU (RX0-K41) isn't supported by Hondata Flashpro. Now i have PRL CAI, Full-race D/p and Full-race Exhaust... So, what are my options for safe Tune? I'm a little bit scared that running daily in this way, will cause some issues in my engine.

Ktuner is a newer option. I guess you may have to see if it works with your ecu.

AEM makes various ems options, but getting a plug and play harness made and finding a tuner will be expensive.

I know with the older ECUs you can soider the connectors on the inside so you can program and dattalog with programs like Hondata Cobb ect. I am trying to find the video on how to or a good right up. I am not 100% sure if anyone has done it with the 9th Gen yet but I know a lot have done it with older ones.

Here is a video of the D16 ECU chipping Sorry could not find the K20 or K24 But it's out there somewhere. But same concept.

Also I found an ok link to read up on it has some websites to get the things you may need.

I would also ask vit about chiping it and maybe he has the diagrams for our ECU. And it could possibly be cheaper to just buy the USDM ECU And sale the one you have

I don't know if this is you as well, but it appears you aren't the only one with this issue: http://www.hondata.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19118

So not all 9th gens ecu's are compatible with flash pro? I see that post says Canadian si. I believe mine was manufactured in Canada..

Check the model number of your ECU against the list on the Hondata website. Emissions/laws are different all over the world. Hondata deals mainly with North American ECUs.

EDIT: OP is from the Dominican Repubic. You shouldn't have any issues with a US bought Canadian built Civic.
