Hondata Introduces Reflash for the ’16 Civic 1.5T
Engine management software manufacturer reveals new programming available for 1.5L turbo Civics
June 24, 2016
TORRANCE, Calif. (June 24, 2016) — When it comes to performance cars, few things are more important than the connection between driver and vehicle. For engine management software maker Hondata, the continuous pursuit to enhance this connection now includes programming for Honda’s tenth generation Civic.
Today, Hondata is introducing its latest in the line of its well-established programs: the Civic 1.5L turbo reflash, a proprietary software upgrade that enhances performance by 20 to 28 horsepower from 4500 rpm to 6000 rpm while spooling the turbo 500 rpm earlier than stock. Torque is increased too, from 10 to 25 ft-lb throughout the rev range at wide-open throttle.
“The tenth-gen Civic is a fantastic vehicle, and we’re taking it a step further. In this case, we’ve developed a high octane performance tune,” said Doug Macmillan, co-founder of Hondata. “The end result is a peppier, fun-to-drive Honda you will fall in love with again!”
Temple of VTEC’s Jeff Palmer agrees: “Hondata has a long history of delivering top quality reflashes and tuning tools for Honda products over the years. Their reflash for Honda's L15B7 follows that tradition and delivers a fat thumping wallop of eye-opening mid-range torque.”
In addition to the horsepower and torque increase, the reflash generates a four to six psi boost increase from 3000 to 6000 rpm. Furthermore, partial throttle fuel economy is unchanged, minimizing compromises to the customer.
The 2016 Civic Reflash is available for purchase now from authorized Hondata dealers. The price is $295, with the ECU provided by the customer.

Well done, will you do tuning for 1.5T w/ CAI, downpipe & exhaust as well? Speaking of warranty, will the reflashed ECU be obvious to dealer when they plug in their scan tool?
