Hey everyone!

Some of you know, i've been boosted before. I had a t3/t4 50 trim set up running AEM EMS 1052. Welp i sold the kit cuz i was getting a place with the wifey at the time and i was gonna use the money for that. That fell through lol. SO i decided to boost again.

THIS time, i vowed to myself and to the closest friends around me, if i was gonna boost again * which i honestly didnt think i would* i would do HONDATA.

Hondata is what i asked for, Hondata is what i got!

Here are the pics of the hondata Kpro, the parts and the other pics are the pics of the oem components needed to convert my 05 to some of the dbw sensors and wat not and a PREEETTY new Valve cover!

In the Middle picture, you'll see a sensor and some wires. That is the Boost solenoid. I opted purchasing that so i wouldnt have to worry about a boost controller and have the hondata set the boost for me. Thought that was one less step i would eliminate

I'm having inline pro install the stuff, AND tune my car N/A at the moment til my other stuff comes. I'm kinda doing a, step....feel it out kinda move... Meaning, i wanted to feel the car N/A and Tuned from Hondata and get a baseline then a N/A tune and see what the increase was and the feeling of it.

Then ofcourse when i go turbo again, retune with hondata.

I'm going with hondata because when i had the aem ems 1052, it felt finicky sometimes. The car's performance wasnt exactly the same allll the time so it wasnt always consistant. I've spoken to other AEM EMS owners and have said the same thing. Ofcourse i didnt like having to prime the pump and i didnt like not using my temp gauge and yes there is a fix for that but to me its the little things that are troublesome... THis is my own personal judgement and i know others who have AEM have no problem dealing with those issue's. I do..

Here are the pictures... Progress will be updated as the project ages

 

Nice setup !!!

keep us posted

 

gonna be sick

 

Hondata K-pro great choice. AEM

 

no one will ever talk me out of my AEM, set up right (the magic phrase) it's perfect (sorry, had to say it )

good luck with your build! brand new valve covers always look sick, never going to be that clean and red again so you just have to change over some the cam and crank sensors? little bit of extra work but not the end of the world.

getting it tuned first NA is a good plan, it's easier to tune all the part throttle stuff that way anyway. what kit are you going with?

 

thanks folks... i mean reliably the aem was a great choic but it was mainly the emmissions that i was worried about. so i was like.. damnit... gotta pay to play here.. unless i knew someone to 'take care" of me when it came to emmissions lol..

I kinda wanted to see and show first hand with the tune in staes for folks cuz there were alot of folks wondering the sanem thing as i was so i decided to do it since i was gonna go hondata anyways...

 

Good Luck with the build!

 

Thanks man!

This isnt gonna be a big build as of now...

stock hg... maybe 8-10 psi....

but this is more for oem driveability and reliability WITH passing emmissions ect.

but i'll know if i decide to go bigger, i'll have a good ems and wat not...while still passing emmissions ect.

i had 301 whp before and it was plenty for daily. but i'm sure i'll want to go faster and more hp lol

 

Could have bought my turbo


P.S. ur a freak!! what's up w/ the tiger stripped sheet?

 

What kit are you going to run?
