Hey! That's me, dahm the internet is a small place.
Vtec in @ 3800 Rpm. Revs to 8600 Rpm. Didn't have any warning lights about the immobilizer - what do you need one for anyway?
Feels very impressive, I believe it's still in early development days, when it's finished I'll be the first to buy one
In the uk the factory immobiliser is disabled with the Hondata ECU for the FN2. We need an immobiliser for insurance purposes - if our cars were stolen and the insurance company found out the immobilser was disabled they wouldn't pay out for the theft. Over here in the UK all the EP3's that are stolen are taken due to break in's and the keys being taken while the owner is asleep. The immobilisers are pretty good.
I actually got to try out this ECU today @ J-Tune's Accord Euro demo and i'm impressed with how it goes.
They just took out my ecu and replaced it with the hondata one. Once you start the car the engine oil light and the warning lights come on.
From low rpm there isn't much difference if any at all but in the mid range where i feel is a flat spot between 3-6Krpm, the car keeps surging forward with this ecu and right out to redline of 8400rpm. I was told it was 8600rpm but the car seemed to bounce off the limiter at around 8400-8500rpm, but i might have been to busy looking out for cops haha.

Honda Civic Type R - Reflashed ECU
Specifically modified for the latest Honda Civic Type R (K20A), Hondata's reflashed ECU is reprogrammed to provide much improved throttle response, acceleration, horsepower and torque. The VTEC point has been lowered to 5200rpm and the rev limit raised to 8600 rpm. At its best point the increase in horsepower is between 25-30 bhp.
I'm seriously thinking of getting one of these if the figures are correct.
