So I'm not too familiar with performance chips, but I did come across something that caught my eye. I was looking for exhaust garnishes for my Type-S bumper and this came up. Does anyone have any thoughts on it? And/or is it just a waste of money. Had no intentions of even tuning it in the near future but this sounds too good to be true.

 

kill it with fire!!

 

I guess that's a no no!

Link tho https://www.amazon.com/SKL-Motorwork...+Chip+acura+tl (can't edit original post).

 

do not buy.

 

Have you done a search on performance chips on this site?

 

this is the same trick that these companies used back in the 90s!!!
shows you that scams can linger for decades

if you open that little tiny black box up, it will be resisters that can be found from Radioshack for less than $5.00

 

 

These "performance chips" are a outright scam. The only tuning options available right now for the 3G TL are the KTuner and Hondata Flashpro. We highly recommend the Flashpro as it provides several base maps that give you more power and can be flashed back to stock at any time. You can PM us or email us for crazy low pricing on the Flashpro.

Have you heard anything definitive yet about a K-Tuned or Hondata tuning option for the 04-06 autos?

 

i have....supposedly ktuner has application for the 04-06 auto even though i have yet to hear about a car using it, but i heard they do have it available.

flashpro will never have support for the 04-06 auto.

however, flashpro is years ahead of ktuner right now and the guy at ktuner said there is no benefit to switch from flashpro to ktuner since it's still being developed (i was curious if it would be worth it).
