PCM and Flashpro problems

Post by SuperElite »

New to forum,

I have a 2018 FK8 and im wondering if i flash it and the motor does go.
i do have a friend who recently purchased flashpro and actually blew his engine up. We Flashed it back to stock un jail broke the Ecu and left the battery off for hours before taking it to honda.

Im curious to know if honda can find out if its been flashed or anything as they do investigate. i know Flashpro is very intensive on the ECu system and it does cover most up but im inquiring as how intensive this flashign process is. Is there going iot be flash counters? Is Honda going to know tghe ECU has been flashed. that stuff

We do not know if they can detect things like that, but it is best to be honest with them rather than try to trick them. If they find out you have lied to them, there is very little chance of them offering any goodwill.
