Haven't seen what maps are available for 09 AT, but looks like the website indicates there should be a base map.

Should I get the flashpro and load up the base map now, or wait until I get the PCD, flashpro, and custom tune?

Guess I'm just wondering if the flashpro alone is worth having now or not really much of a difference until you have a custom tune and PCD?

i suspect the base map will smooth out and make the car more drivable/streetable.
as in, the car wont be so quirky day-to-day.

but its only when you add the custom tune is when you'll be like WOW! so much difference!

That's kind of what I was imagining. I'll have to download the manager to make sure the map is out there. I haven't looked at what is available.

ive never driven a TSX, but my TL is one of the QUIRKIEST daily drivers ever.
not consistent in how it drives, day-to-day. I so want a "basemap" tune to help it become more streetable on a daily basis.
hope this helps ya!

You are going to need a tune anyway when you do all your other stuff, so why not go and buy the flashpro now? It's not like you're losing money...

I was one of the first people to buy it back in 2011.. it was worth it. I didn't even supercharge my car until 2014 haha.

t3hhcaptain

Yeah it does!

The TSX (mine anyway) could stand to be smoother. If the base map will give it a more refined feeling and flatter curve then I'm cool with that for now.

For sure. I know on page 9 of your tune thread you posted a screen shot of maps in the vault... do you happen to know that 1.) there is a hondata base map available, and 2.) if there have been any new maps added? I'm at work or I'd install and find out.

this, coupled with the info Joe gave sounds like flashpro will be in your future, shortly

Yeah there is a base map for the automatic. Also, dimefeng has one tuned by VIT for basically stock vehicles. Pretty sure most of the people who don't wanna pay for their own tune use dimefengs tune.

Advantages include:
rev hang delete
higher red line
VTEC engage earlier (if you want)
smoother increase in power

t3hhcaptain

Is his MT?

I only have an intake so I wonder how his compares to base.

Dime Feng's map is 5AT. I'm using it and I like it

t3hhcaptain

I'll give it a try then!

Thanks everyone!

lol its fine being left open.

I noticed dime's calibration has the RV6 PCD, which I don't have yet.

I'm going to load up the basemap for now, I think, unless someone can confirm his tune is safe for stock header?

sharing maps isnt a good idea in my book, just get all your bolt ons done and get a custom tune with vit viper.
