Why is Hondata so stingy with improvements to the 1.5 base turbo CVT tunes?

They should include a price on their site to upgrade Hondata to race version.
Well idk lol they are priced the same that's why I think the CARB version is pointless. If you want to tune a car then don't even think about CARB lol since you can always flash back to stock whether it's hondata or ktuner.

CARB version is $200 less. And for some, price is a consideration.

how about he does himself a favor and buy KTuner? Not trying to hate on Hondata but the way I perceive it, they love money.
Well said man, yes I've actually used both on 2 different 10th gens. I'm so much happier with @KTuner and with them your buying a fully functional and capable device straight out of the box. They don't believe in deliberate multiple version of maps just to get you to spend more money on different gimmick versions. I think flashpro for the 10th gen Civic has four different versions for the Civic platform. There really is no need in all of that when you can actually purchase all of these supposed versions in one package deal with KTuner. One of the reasons why I switched from hondata to KTuner was also because of their slow response to adding features. I got tired of waiting.
