Hey Jeramy, does the offer still end April 15, or are you extending the deadline since you have become and official vendor now?

Thanks!

Just wanted to say that I've had great service! Ordered this past friday, received the UPS labels the same day and shipped everything out today (monday, because I didn't want to be car-less for the weekend). Since I have no hondata dealer in the area, this is by far the easiest way to get the reflash.

Thanks for the excellent service jeramy!

Since there was a week or so that I was not a vendor, I have extended the promotion until April 30th; after that, I will come up with something different.....but it will not be quite as lucrative of an offer; the current promotion is about $100/order worth of giveaways and freebies

Tell us more Marketman....Can you notice the extra low end torque?
Do you have any other mods?

I am in Manhattan; but unfortunatly, there really are no goods to be checked out.....everything is done through UPS/electronically and sent to the facility in CA. If you just want to shoot the shit or something, I just got a new TV today and will be watching it quite often

Thanks to everyone else for the comments; I know you have many choices when choosing an item for your car, so I just try to give everyone a fair deal on the price and the same service I would expect whenever I buy something. It is hard to find in this industry, so I just try to do my little part.

I will be out of town for most of Friday, Saturday, Sunday and I'm sure part of Monday for our first race of the year in Maryland. It should be very exciting and if any of you are close, you have to come check it out. Race schedule and directions are on our website.

Hey Jeramy,

Does this mean that if I want to purchase the Hondata reflash this weekend, I will need to wait?

You can not ship it out until Monday anyhow, and I will be back in time to create everything for you.....I really plan on being home really late Sunday

Worst case scenario, you can ship it out on Tuesday and will be back Thursday

Definitely notice a difference with the Hondata - Seat of the pants dyno says definite increase in power/torque noticeable anywhere above 3000 rpm and a substantial difference when vtec kicks in at 5k. No more bog on shifts as power stays in vtec with raised rev limit/lower vtec point. Only had time to run about 20 minutes since I did it on my lunch and it was raining after work so car stayed in the garage - didn't want to get it dirty! Will update more when I get some nice weather and more time behind the wheel - definitely an easy power upgrade with noticeable results! - as for what other mods I have just check out my sig

I'm sure your co-workers were psyched...

I don't think they are back from their race yet. I tried calling today (Monday) but only got voicemail. Maybe Tuesday.

Jeramy I have a facked up work scheduele. Work from 6pm-6am, Off days on Saturday and Monday and I rely on my car a lot since I drive 70 miles each way to work.. When would it be the best time to send my ECU so I can maximize the use of my off days? If I was to overnight it on Friday would I have it back by Monday afternoon or Early Tuesday morning?

One last thing if/when I get around to taking my ECU out and sending it, I get a Hondata heatshield gasket if the order is placed before April 30?

Thanks in Advance

The best thing to do would be send it off on Monday and you would get it back Wednesday in plenty of time to have fun with it and then go to work. That way you would only have to take off Tuesday.

The gasket is $60 with no extra shipping if you get it at the same time; the promotion gives one away for every 15 orders; if you were to win that, I would just refund your money.

Once payment is received, you will receive a response email with 2 UPS shipping labels and the required information form. Once you receive those, you simply print them out, remove the items on the checklist that come in the email, put them in a box and drop them off at any location accepting UPS packages. You will be back on the road in 36-48 hours with a much better experience!
hondata ships it back to you.

I'm also in north cali. Here's how my reflash experience was. I took this from one of my other posts

I used Kindle Racing for the reflash.
I sent the ECU out on a Wednesday about 2 p.m (Cut off time was 4 p.m. at the UPS Store for Next day). It got to Hondata via UPS at 10:30 a.m. on Thurday. They flashed it and sent it back out the same day. I ended up getting it back at 9 a.m. on Friday via UPS Next Day Air Saver.

That ends up being 43 hours from the time the ECU left my hands until I got it back. I was very happy with the turnaround time!

alright I'm in. Jeramy has been great in answering questions and basically hand-holding since i was so on the fence. Will be a few weeks until I can plan on car being down for a few days while it gets reflashed, but for all intent and purpose - it is a done deal.

I'm not sure about the totals up to this morning, but I don't think enough guys actually ended up buying to quantify the free reflash for one lucky buyer.

I just wanted to give Kindle Racing & Hondata some props for running a great business. The reflash process was smooth and quick. I sent it out at 4:00pm on Wednesday and got it back at 11:00am on Friday. As for the gains, this mod is well worth it for the money.... just read some of the other posts. Thanks again!!!!!
