i went to apex motorsports in tucson arizona, which is about 10 minutes from my house. i went their to ask questions about the hondata process, i ended up leaving with my hondata installed and my car fully tuned for a measely $150. yay.

and here were my results:

oh, forgot to mention. the a/f ratio prior to getting the car tuned with hondata, was HORRIBLE!!!!!!

it was very rich down low, once vtec engaged, the duty cycle would go above 100% causing no fuel to get dumped, so... in return, fuggin 18 a/f ratio... all air baby!

after tuning the car, it is now constantly between 13-14. goooo hondata!
 
congrats!!! WOW that was cheap man... Sheeit! Was it one they threw away? Or was it one that someone spit on? lol

Ok- you're tuned now it's time for us to race.
 
no way... I'm fat now. How about we each get to choose a mazdasports member- and the people we choose will fight to the death... The result of their bloody match will determine who won the race... Good?
 
Yay!!! I won!!! Tony slipped on a banana peel and knocked himself out!!! I am teh winnnn!
 
I like the P5 better. That grille was pretty cool haven't seen much of those and like it better than the AutoEXE.
