Also, our best guess is that a reflash would give 2-4 hp. Would people still want to spend $295?
I can't speak for others, but 3hp for $300 is totally doable - if it was just 3hp. But the reflash opens up possibilities and to think that it ONLY cost $300 for that is really awesome. Seriously, I'd call Hondata up right now for that.
I'm sure Hondata is filled with smart folks who know this market as well as Honda they know ECUs. I still find it tough to stomach that the dev costs won't justify the apparently limited base of potential customers.
This can't be a new idea: isn't there some way to partner with the aftermarket so that they can display a little marque indicating that a Hondata map is available for a particular combination of their parts? If someone makes in intake & exhaust, I'd imagine it'd be nice to say that an out of the box map exists for that combo.
