I currently have an 04 s2000 and i am wanting to know if i can and how i can have it run flashpro or if its recomended to do so. open for all opinions please!

 

Buying a Kpro is cheaper and much easier

 

Just stick with KPro or AEM Infinity or AEM Series 2.

Converting 04 or 06 DBW I'm sure is a terribly expensive thing to do.

 

OK SO IF I RUN KPRO I DONT HAVE TO CHANGE ANYTHING, I HAVE BEEN UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT IF I HAD AN 04 I HAD TO CHANGE THE ECU TO AN RSX AND CHANGE SOME SENSORS LIKE TDC CRANK CRANK WHEEL TDC WHEEL VALVE COVER PCV VALVE, AND IAT SENSOR?

 

You have to make all of those same changes for flashpro AND WAY WAY MORE

 

way more.

This is minimal compare to all the stuff you will change out for Flashpro...trade your car in for a newer one would be easier if you NEED flashpro

 

Please stop yelling.

If you wanted to make your car an 06 youd have to basically do all that, and change the gas pedal, throttle body, etc. Not to mention all the wiring.

 

Looks like the expense to Kpro the car is well over $2000 + labor. If you want to fit a blower you'll obviously need something like this. You can tune it for what feels like much more mid-range power (and acceleration) without forced induction.

kpro 1095
rsx ecu 650
mods 375
2120

Not sure you can economically convert to DBW which is necessary for FlashPro.

I have an '06 and a Gernby FlashPro tune that's wonderful. But it was a $700 option (including the tune) not a $2100+ option to gain that mid range power. Even knowing how nice the cars is with a 3,600 rpm VTEC activation I doubt I'd try to do it on an '05 or earlier.

Trading for a later model car actually makes sense if you want the ability to tune your ECU. Will make forced induction easier if you eventually go that route. If you can avoid the emotional disconnect you can probably trade your '04 for an '06 or '07 for that $2000 cost difference. Not only gain the ability to FlashPro the car but you gain Stability Assist (traction control, etc). You can move all your ricer options like the lowering springs, black wheels and red brake calipers to the "new" car.
