Ktuner ECU tuning!
#65
Since there seems to be concern about interest in this a few posts back... I'll say I'm still waiting excitedly for this to become available to me.
My other car is turbo, so tuning ECU tuning is very effective, easy, and cheap. NA cars are always tough, but even just a ~6 peak whp gain in a car as light as the Fit makes a difference, and the power delivery is the biggest factor in everyday fun (which to me is most important).
ktuner any idea how much a retail version of this flash / tune would cost?
myxalplyx, i'm assuming by your signature you're trying to hit a 14.xx second 1/4 mile haha. i'm wondering a few things, if you don't mind sharing. Where did you got your parts from? What wheels/tires are you running? and someone mentioned you're local in NJ. If youre in north NJ, mind sharing any good independent shops for Hondas? Dealership doesn't install aftermarket parts and I wouldn't want them to anyway, and I don't have time for DIY crap any more.
It's also funny you mention the Fiesta ST. With a good tune, suspension upgrades, and sticky tires, I have faith that this car can at least give it a decent run for its money.

I'm in Delaware but occasionally hit-up Atco Raceway and Englishtown to race at events. Sometimes I race Tuesday nights at Atco-Gamblers Bracket Racing. Wednesdays and Friday I frequent Cecil County Dragway. Most of the time I'm testing ideas with minor changes to see what works and what doesn't. This is a CVT that ran 17.1-17.2 stock so every little thing counted.
I know of no Honda Shops! I B.S. around scavenging for parts like I'm homeless. My intake is laughable but VERY effective.

Yes, we'll be posting the support part numbers on the site shortly. The software has Tune 1 included in it and is available to be tuned / remote tuned by dealers. Kenny @ SpeedFactory/TurbogixxerTuning is getting ahead on the platform.

I'm still watching. The direct injection and integrated exhaust manifold seems like a huge tuning bottle neck. I'm concerned leaning this engine further could aggravate the GDI coking issue. Any thoughts about how a tune could accelerate valvetrain issues?
