JOES05tl, nevermind my question above. I got my question answered by ComptechUSA.
1:37pm EST
Just spoke to the technican over at ComptechUSA. It is believed after 3 weeks of intensive research between ComptechUSA and Hondata of trying to reflash the ECU to resolve the SURGING issue. The results came back negative and at this point, no solution to resolve the surging issue yet. As for REFLASHING the ECU, it's mainly targetted for TLs without S/Cs for better enhancement and the talk of Stage 2 or adding more horsepower to the S/C TL came back negative.

One on the right for me
why would you call when they specifically said not to? why dont you just let them figure out how to make everything work instead of being bothered

I just want more power and I will never be satisfied, I know I guess I am addicted to speed!

Doug mentioned something about that...either they already had one or it was going to be out soon...I cant remember as I was busy the day my car was tested. He also mentioned the hood modification the Thunderhill TL had on...kept the engine 20 degrees cooler.

What car is the radiator cap for? If I do it, I want to do all three. Which model, year, motor civic/prelude are these for. The 4th gen prelude had the H23 and H22. I don't even want to get into the # of engines in the civics, but in the 96-00 there where 4 or 5 different engine codes. So that might help alittle.

Personally, I want to do the Spoon Sports radiator cap. Its a 1.35 BAR vs the 1.3 BAR of the Mugen. I am trying to verify which cap will work on the TL. The spoon offers a D-Type and a F-type. For Mugen there is one without a B2 on it and the one with the B2. It looks like the none B2 is for the TL, so this would make it so the D-Type Spoon Cap would work for those that would like to use Spoon!

Now that I've had the reflash on for a few days- The red line is less that 7500, more like 7350, right before 7500. Bottom end feels smoother, more mellow, but the top end just pulls and pulls.

BTW i recomend removing your battery for install it makes it so much easier...
also i thought id add you will be removing your resusable rubber gasket around your T stat and re placing the it with the one that comes on your prelude tstat
