Completely different good? Can you provide more color/description?
From a general performance, feel, fun per dollar perspective, how would you rate the Hondata reflash (with header)?

My opinions are probably biased given my past relationships with Hondata, but IMHO the reflash is a 10. With that said, if I was new to the mod process, and had the additional money, I would probably go straight to the K-Pro.

If you were to do it again would you leave the S n/a? I've heard a few people say that they felt the S was more "fun" before they were boosted even though it was slower b/c of the characteristics of the car. Do you feel the same way.

Completely different great! My S2000 had a much better powerband given the earlier VTEC engagement point, the increased rev limiter, and the overall AFR tuning. Call me crazy but I think I noticed an increase in fuel economy as well.

Curious, given your close relationship with Hondata, if you know anything about the possibility of a FlashPro being made for the '06+ S2000s? Currently they only show it for the 06+ Civic Si and Euro/JDM Civic Type-R.

K-Pro seems great, but very pricey... If I was going F/I sure, but with basic bolt-ons, probably overkill, no?

I wouldn't imagine Hondata creating an FlashPro for the MY06+ S2000. Primary reason being they have a lot of money invested in the K-Pro setup. It wouldn't be financially sound for them to create another product for the car.

We've pretty much paid cash for all the mods. We do have some car loans though. My wife and I make decent money, but are far from being "ballers".

Here's some images for example sake... I don't like how the exhaust looks on the Evo IX, I wish there was an aftermarket exhaust that looked like the 330ci. It looks more decent and less cheap IMO.
