i have an 05 civic si ep3 (k20a3)

currently, i have an rsx-s midpipe, along with an aem sri setup, otherwise, my ride is stock.

the modding itch has hit me tho, and i'm wanting to pick up an rbc manifold (maybe do some porting to), a larger throttle body, and possibly a full exhaust (not sure yet...cops here dont like loud bumbling imports)

is there any way to tune the car to 'realize' the new mods aside from kpro and aem's setups? i.e....safc or similar? not really looking to do datalogging anyway.

and out of curiosity...if i get a hondata reflash done...is there anyway i can send a seperate ecu to have chipped? that way i can still retain my oem ecu just for safe keeping?

thanks for your help!

1-larger throttle body and porting wont do nothing for you since its a stock engine. but RBC is a good mod.
2-you want to tune the car without datalogging? you cannot tune a car without datalogging.
3-dont waste money on a reflash , buy Kpro and have ultimate control.
