as a total novice, but based on the fact they already said we could copy the tables for knock air limits that we could copy the whole tune but it was made for the MT so Im not sure if it would work correctly copying and pasting it. But maybe it will and What we do with a custom tune is on us or our tuner. lets ask, Hey @Hondata even if you cant recommend it, is it possible to copy the whole +9 psi tune over to a CVT
Even if you could, I think there's still a limitation in the programmer to prevent it from passing a certain torque limit.

After two days of testing, i can tell one thing, the clutch is at his max, a little more tq and the clutch probably could not handle this power and i'm running basemap, no custom tune yet.
I dont know how the cvt could take the huge kick of the turbo when you hammer it,

go to the boost table and lower the boost from 2800-3300. it will lower your peak tq


are you sure the clutch is slipping? vit and another user here DD theirs at 280tq.

the rpm is going up while the speedo stands still or slowly moving?

Happy camper. K control settled nicely to 54% on Mobil 93. My mileage is still amazing, clutch is seemingly none the wiser. And hopefully the wife isn't either. But it's hard to contain myself while she is in the car with me, so sooner or later, the jig will be up, and I will be in the doghouse. But WORTH IT!

Interesting how @Hondata Has not given us a definitive answer on whether or not they will be coming out with a more powerful tune for the cvt. It would be nice to hear directly from them.
To be fair, I'm sure the guys at @Hondata are doing their best. They probably aren't certain how a +9 psi map will work with the CVT yet, but I'm sure they'll test it and give us info as they become certain.

LOL on the wife. Mine asked what I was doing with the computer in the car parked in the garage. I said,"Im adjusting fuel maps for better gas mileage" That worked for a while, then a wing showed up at the front door. Then I came home with wheels, Then a front lip, and now today an intake. She literally just called and said what the eff did you have delivered today. She opened the box and I heard her gasp, then she says, "you've been making the car faster all along." But she will be happy because each time something arrives, she gets to shop and spend what I spent on the car. Unfortunately now, i have to add the cost of the Flash Pro into the next shopping spree!

@dallasjhawk I definitely know what you are going through bro as I have gone through the same exact thing. I'm waiting on the PRL pipes and gonna have to find someway to explain that purchase. Lol

And to stay on subject. Hondata should release a +9 for the CVT and have us sign another waiver to check mark releasing them from liability.

I'm wondering what the max tq is for the gearbox. If fitted with an uprated clutch so you can adjust to higher boost and more torque, there must be another weak link.

I assume we already "signed" that waiver when we first installed the programmer and flashed the tune to begin with. Even with the current "safe" basemaps we have, there's also a possibility that ones car may break from it. I also assume that everyone knows the consequences of using any programmer/tuner on any car (not just @Hondata ). The consequences that ultimately its the owners responsibility if something breaks due to them trying to push their car further than what it's intended to do.

That being said, it would be nice to have those abilities to push further for those daring to try.

And that is the thing I don't understand. We buy a $700 Flashpro only for certain models to receive the full +9 base map? Sounds like some of us got fleeced. We paid for the FP and clicked on the waiver, we should get the complete package. Just my 2 cents.

I to would like to know if Hondata is working with Honda to get this in dealers and get it under warranty. That would be a deciding factor between going with Ktuner or Hondata.

Tank, the difference is really impressive comprare to my custom +6 mishi tune. You feel absolutely no lag between shift and when you ride and hammer it you feel the huge increase of tq. It's like christmas For me today lol.
