I haven't messed with that stuff for a couple/few years now, but it was great at the time and I don't see it being worse now..

Head over to forum.pgmfi.org and read around to check things out

this is a really good idea..its how ryan's nx2000 is setup. no power with the cutout closed, lottttts of power when its open.

We talked about some tuning options with Casey yesterday, and he said he would kick doug in the head if he went with chrome or uberdata lolol

True story... We did just get done talkin bout this yesterday... The people that know their shit throw out Hondata over Crome 10 - 1... All I see when people start talkin about Crome is idiots building rice boxes that don't know about shit... For instance, MikeSteveKyle...

Did you get my txt about those mags? Come get these janks

Probably would have gone quicker if you didn't spend 20 minutes trying to find an inverted torx bit to remove the clutch haha.

I say screw racing, drink beer...lets do it, now.

Chrome sucks, and Gooberdata is worse. If your going to do it, do it right. Get Hondata. I refuse to touch anything that is tuned on either of them.

i couldnt make it out of doug's driveway without scraping my exhaust, im not sure how he will make it out of his own driveway if he goes any lower AND puts a real exhaust on.

Neptune seems like a good option for tuning, people say its on par with hondata, but in truth you could probably find a used s300 for cheaper than a new neptune rtp. Either one of these would be more than suitable for your setup. The only cutout I would ever run would be one of the ones from speedwaymotors, its not like the QTP one, I can't see how this one could leak but its also like 600 dollars, and its not like theres a ton of room to run it. heres a link.

I'm not familliar with Neptune, however I have seen cars put down numbers on it that are comparible to Hondata, they do have a lot of the same tables/features from what i've heard...You know me and Darell though, if it's not Hondata, it's garbage lol
