The 2006 S2000 was not Honda's best effort ever 'out-of-the-box' (flabby suspension and the first year drive-by-wire ECU issue of stumbling slightly between 2-3,000 rpm's). The Flashpro fixes the driveability issue, eliminates the torque dip before Vtec and gives a couple of hundred more rpm's at the top end. Thanks for this video that helped me understand how to improve my AP2.

When I purchase my hondata for my 91 crx si I would love to make the journey to your shop for you to give it a dyno tune. It’s b series. LHT is about 600 miles from me.

[@jonmcclane7433]

I just did a Hondata Reflash on my low mile 2008 Civic Si. Couldn’t be happier. It had a Cold Air Inake and Catback Exhaust already on it and since the Tune the exhaust note is louder and I dont have any more rev hang. Also the VTEC doesn’t kick in like before, but rather a smoother transition to the higher RPM’s.

[@Cameron_R_]

I’m so excited to see more testing on this car. I will try to make time to visit when I return from overseas. I’m sure it will be an interesting new turning point for the channel.

[@victorwilburn3498]

John: Your flashing me back to my white '08 AP2. Can't wait for you to put a header and full exhaust on the red car. Do you remember how much my white car picked up with your step header, reflash, k&n drop in filter and 2.5" exhaust? Went from 205 rwhp to 242 rwhp!! The best part was moving VTEC changeover to 4200 rpm. Gave the car massive torque across the rpm band. A S2K you could short shift and still fly. I will be watching. Keep it coming.

[@LHTPerformance]

I do remember your car very well. This car isn’t getting the same treatment, plans are 350-370whp but with a wide torque band starting low down but while remaining quiet and OEM feel.

[@victorwilburn3498]

@@LHTPerformance Sounds great. While I am not personally a fan of turbo engines, it makes total sense to go that route for robust torque production and the ability to really "tune" the powerband you want. Should be a fast and fun car👍

[@TerryHeick]

37 WHP is a huge gain. Very nice. I’m guessing that’s mostly from the exhaust?

[@victorwilburn3498]

@@TerryHeick Hondata reflash with the exhaust John designed and built was effectively like a cam swap. Vtec window lowered to 4,000 rpm and the exhaust let the stock head maximize its potential. OEM F22 cylinder head can flow enough air for 500 HP with a S/C or turbo.

[@patrickotoole7427]

More great stuff on this project. Thanks. Can't wait to learn more about the this turbo setup. I have an AP1. If the Hondata is installed on an AP1, can you notice any of the changes? For example, with some AP1 piggy back systems, the kick panel can't fit back in place and the box has to be mounted somewhere (probably in the cabin behind the seat as recommended by the mfg.). With the Hondata setup on an AP1, can you tell it from stock because everything is hidden? Thanks

[@lcq4blackstar]

With a flashpro you don't have to leave it plugged into the car, it is only required for tuning/ecm modifications/datalogging, if you've got the tune dialed in just leave it at home in a safe place. The flashpro writes over the stock ECM data.

[@lcq4blackstar]

Also a nice feature of the flashpro is 2 tunes can be saved to the box at once so if you had say a 93 octane tune and an E85 tune you could switch over with the box plugged in without bringing a computer along to make the switch.

[@luisb3374]

I have an AP1 as well (2002), but Hondata website says 2006 to 2009 model years only, unfortunately. Curious which flashpro brand are you using?

John in hondata, do you know of any other issues that would cause boost cut besides the car overboosting?! I went for a drive today for the first time since my dyno tune in cooler weather, and I am hitting boost cut but I'm not over boosting. I momentarily had a check engine light and then it turned off . I don't know who to ask. You are the most knowledgeable person I know. Any input would greatly help thanks.

[@LHTPerformance]

First you'll need to see if there is a boost cut and what it is set at. It's possible it could be blowing out the spark too

[@camlobesvtec]

Boost cut is set at 14lbs of boost. I'm making about 11.5 lbs . What causes the spark to blow out? Thanks

[@LHTPerformance]

Camlobes Vtec Spark blow could be weak coil or coils, too large of a gap etc. Boost cut is usually pretty noticeable.

[@camlobesvtec]

Hey thanks. Yeah boost cut is crazy. 1st and 2nd gear are fine, but 3rd cuts at 6k. I didn't like hearing weak spark so I'll be putting in some OEM coil packs. I figure its almost time for some new ones with 120k . Hope all is well with you and your family.

what afr do you find makes the best power on a stock NA engine?

[@LHTPerformance]

Typically this is an open ended question. There's many variables, gas, compression and type of use. Rule of thumb is 12.5 to 1. Most cases you'll see very little power difference between 11.8 and 13.5. Always play it safe

[@Croatianpunisher]

Does Hondata make it for 2005’s as well?

[@LHTPerformance]

Only 06+. You can do a K-Pro conversion for the 00- 05 and run Hondata.

[@Croatianpunisher]

What does the Kpro do?

[@LHTPerformance]

@@Croatianpunisher it’s Hondata. It uses a different ecu and allows the car to be tuned.

[@marlo916]

Doesnt seem worth it for only 2hp and little torque gain. Any reflash will change the ecu calibration number, so not true that it's "undetectable".

[@martinvarela1040]

I know what I'm going to ask is not related to this video but and sought information and no one specifically says anything.

I’m not sure you can swap engines in Cali. Some States require the same engine or newer and retain all the equipment

[@Hollowdash0-01]

What’s the best way to tune an 05 ? Do I need to change out anything?

[@LHTPerformance]

For anything boosted, the cheaper alternative is AEM Ems. The best option is to convert to Hondata K-Pro.

[@ChrisTheKid83]

is there a tune like this that can be done on a 2005 S2000?

[@moustachio334]

Yes go to the Hondata website for details. I don’t remember the conversion but it works with the K-pro tuner. They probably sell a conversion kit. Check their website out.

[@8300rpmallday]

This may sound strange but has anyone every tune base on torque and not HP

[@LHTPerformance]

HP is a bi product of torque. Keep your torque with rpm and more HP comes to the party.

[@jimbo5635]

The dyno measures torque. Then computes the HP based on torque and RPM. If you increased HP at a given RPM, you have increased torque

[@Ragnarok043]

think of it like this, say i swing a 2lb hammer 3 feet and hit a baseball. to increase "torque"(force x distance = work) i can switch to a 5lb hammer but the baseball doesn't really go that much further. but if i take that 2lb hammer and swing it faster i can knock that baseball out really far, that's power(force x distance x speed). of course this is just an analogy so its not exactly like this but you should get the gist of it

[@8300rpmallday]

Sort of understand, I just wondering saw a video wrc racing they where talking about shifting the power to range of rpm to get more torque and I ever wonder if they where tuning base on torque or just make the car more efficient at a certain rpm.

[@protectandswerve]

Okay guys..love your stuff but your dragy date and 1/4 ET gain if severely flawed!!! The first run had a 60 ft. time of 3.45 sec and the 2nd run with flash was a 3.21 60ft. Anybody that knows Drag racing knows the 60 ft. time means a TON in the rest of the increment's !!! You only gained TWO hundreds on the 1/4 but the real figure you need to focus on is the MPH... MPH in the 1/4 is what means something for power. You seemed to have gained about 1 - 1.5 MPH which is about the only thing you can show as a true gain from that Flash. Again, the "Launch" / 60 Foot times would have had to be the EXACT same for it to really make a difference in the overall incrementals / ET's. MPH is what you need to focus on in the 1/4 to show overall power gains.

[@LHTPerformance]

I’m sure you could tell by the draggy part we only half assed did the test. The dyno showed the results. The half ass drag was not really meant to be a bench mark.

[@protectandswerve]

@@LHTPerformance I get it. Yes the dyno and the "race weight & 1/4 MPH" calculations is really where it's at for measuring HP gains. If conditions / weight are the same / similar, then that's the tell tell. I just meant the 1/4 ET was totally irrelevant to that particular test. No offense was meant, I just was saying that I would have skipped showing / telling the ET. With almost two and a half tenths difference in the 60 ft, the gain in the ET wasn't actually good at all. However the MPH gain was...I would just focus on that for those that don't / can't understand all the incrementals of a 1/4 pass...Agian though, thank you and love your vids and work.
