I have tuned with FlashPro and loved it!

It is full of powerful features and easy to use. Having tuned using KManager for many years, it was really easy to get used to FManager. Some of the new display features from FManager are now even being incorporated in to KManager! If we could just get Live Tuning in KManager . You can download the software from the Hondata web site and take a look at it. It also comes with a whole library of excellent base calibration files.

I highly recommend the FlashPro :up:

 

Stick with Hondata as they have been tuning Honda's since the creation of man. Cobb is a wonderful company and all, but they specialize in Subaru/Mitsubishi turbo cars. Leave the Honda stuff to Hondata, you will be much happier in the end.

 

I had the cobb ap and switched to flashpro. Cobb has nothing working at all. You will not be able to tune your car with cobb. flashpro is working great and has live tuning.

 

Just to follow up - I got the cobb since it was $200+ less - and - i couldn't be happier!

It has been really easy to use and I have a killer street tune going now with my MAF calibrated for my custom intake, adjusted vtec, ignition timing, new throttle tables, launch control, custom rev limit, tweaked the idle, got rid of rev hang, adjusted my speedo... I haven't even gotten into my cam phasing or had any dyno time - i can't wait!

I've read up on the hondata, but i still haven't really figured out why it's better other than the obvious (support/development at cobb has ceased for honda, while hondata's entire business is built upon it..) But, either way, I'm up & running, and able to make tuning adjustments on my own and saved enough to get a header...

 

yes, cobb gave it a shot but I think they withdrew gracefully.

Flashpro is the way to go in my opinion

I went from the cobb ap to the flash pro on my 06 si, Cobb right now is out of the honda game because they were unable to get the tuning correct. They are a very good company with subbies and such, hondas...not so much. Go with the flashpro, I couldnt be any happier with my decision.

 

cobb is great for mild things, fp is the only answer for serious tuning

 

I think you guys are off base here. The reason Cobb stopped supporting honda is not that they couldn't get the tuning right,and it's not that there is anything with the device or software that makes it not suitable for "serious tuning." It has basically all of the tuning and logging capability of the flashpro.

The reason Cobb backed out of supporting honda users is that there wasn't much demand - hondata had cornered the market and there wasn't much room for competition largely due to the communities biases as evidenced in the claims above..

The point is, it's a good tuning tool. I have my motor running like tits on a street tune i did myself. if I'd had gone hondata, there would have been a kFrank base map that I would have had to tweak - that is the major difference.. Oh and I saved some dough.

 

If what you say is true than the the $200 difference in price should have more than captured the market for Cobb. It worked on you didn't it so I assume a few other budget minded folks attempted it but lets face it. Side by side Cobb Access port can't hold a candle to Hondata. They realized this and bowed out of the game.

It's cool you got it working, if it were that easy.. they would still be in business with this product and would have a successful showing of it.

Hell even a blind squirrel gets a nut once in a while lol

 

and btw - Cobb tech support is great and helpful even though I got the accessport second hand - the guys I spoke with were knowledgeable about working with hondas...

 

No support for FI.

 

The flashpro due to its many uses and capabilities. Even at a lower cost, the COBB was not as friendly to tune with vs Hondata. Sometimes lower cost doesn't mean the product will sell either.
