Just confirmed that the Tuning Factory in Farmington Hills MI (listed on the hondata dealers page with their phone number) sells the Hondata reflash for $535 not including shipping to Hondata. That's $10 cheaper than clubRSX's self-ship option.

More details:

I don't know what the ECU + immobilizer weigh, but with an estimate of 10 lbs in an 8" cube box and insurance value of $930 (price for ECU + immobilizer from Radley's parts department) next-day shipping would cost $80, bringing the total price to $615 (more than clubRSX with shipping). If the total weight drops to 5 lbs and the box to 6" cubed, the shipping drops to $60, making the total $595, identical to the clubRSX price with shipping. Obviously you can save some money by using ground or 3-day shipping if you don't mind being carless for a week.

I'll probably just go with clubrsx, but thanks for the lead and welcome aboard Red!

Welcome and congrat on your purchase. And damn you don't waste no time in modding that thing huh? It took me a whole year before the mod-bug bit me; now I'm still going strong. LOL...

The place that sends the ecu in also can get the headers for 325 and the cat back for 700 instead of 850. They prly are getting the headers from dc sports directly with there own discount. You can get the headers from autoanything.com for 312 I think.you get free shipping from them to (min. order of like 50 bucks) But I have $10 off coupon from when I bought my CAI. Hope that cleard it up 4 u.

You can't be the TSX fan until you've owned at least 2.
