Do you think there's a possibility changes to the ECU would make it unlockable? If not unlockable, maybe too expensive to unlock?Plans, yes, but we do not know what has changed yet.
Don’t buy any tuner until vendor says it’s supported.Do you think there's a possibility changes to the ECU would make it unlockable? If not unlockable, maybe too expensive to unlock?
I plan to buy a 2020 Type R and do a Hondata flash tune but a little worried that it won't be possible to tune.
Yes, in a perfect world that's how it would work. We don't live in a perfect world. I'm simply gauging the risk from the source.Don’t buy any tuner until vendor says it’s supported.
rumor mill said the 2008 gtr was going to be a uncrackable ECU.. well look what happened.Do you think there's a possibility changes to the ECU would make it unlockable? If not unlockable, maybe too expensive to unlock?

Small correction. The Si TCA and the Type R TC both use production based ECU. I'm not sure if that means they're using Hondata for tuning. @Hondata, not sure if you can confirm/deny whether the TCA/TC cars use Hondata for tuning.rumor mill said the 2008 gtr was going to be a uncrackable ECU.. well look what happened.
Honda wont do that because their ecu has to be the same as production in tca/tcr and they re flash them to suit class specs.
Correct, my mistake!Small correction. The Si TCA and the Type R TC both use production based ECU. I'm not sure if that means they're using Hondata for tuning. @Hondata, not sure if you can confirm/deny whether the TCA/TC cars use Hondata for tuning.
As far as the TCR
Ahhhh makes sense. Now I knowIt's a fuel cell rather than a fuel tank.
So would you recommend I have them change to new radiator while I have bumper off to replace for new 2020?yea i am not counting on it....obviously. But to be fair Honda has marketed this car and its herritage of the R brand to be a car you can take to the track and daily it. And so far as track duty in most cases it is running to hot. But yea i know i doubt they will do anything and the diy to swap the radiator is actually quite involved not like the old civic days.
