I'm looking for some help as I've never had a tune on a car before but i'm highly interested in Hondata after reading through this and many other forum conversations. A few questions:
Is it as simple as ordering Hondata online with the Instant Jailbreak, download software onto my laptop, then hook it up to the OBDII port when it arrives and load the base maps? I'm sure I'm missing some steps there, but it seems like these are the high-level steps. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
If I load the base maps of 91 and 93 octane, and run the 93 octane as that is most common around where I live, how hard is it to switch to the 91 tune in case I take the car on a road trip and can only find 91? Would I need to take my laptop with me or is there a way to "switch between the 2 tunes" without a laptop?
Do I have to go through each base tune and add things like Traction Control or do the base tunes come with that already loaded?
So far I only have the PRL High Volume intake on the car but plan to do more to it once I get the Hondata installed. I just want to be somewhat knowledgeable when I start the journey of a tuned car so I hopefully don't do anything stupid. Any help is greatly appreciated!
