Hey Everyone!
I am looking into tuning my 2.0T either through a flash tune from the Hondata FlashPro or a piggyback tune from the BMS JB4. From everything I've seen online the JB4 is looking like a very solid option considering you retain your warranty, it costs $300 less than the FlashPro (money isn't a problem but saving $300 is always nice), and I see that BMS is very helpful when it comes to trouble shooting. On the other hand though Hondata is tried and true and a lot of Hondata users are successfully going long term with the FlashPro with little to no problems and I have a buddy who works at a Honda dealer and he claims that if the ECU is returned to stock they can't see it was tuned. When searching online I can't find anyone who has thrown a 2.0T JB4 on a dyno but according to the logs it looks like it does give as much power or toque as the FlashPro.
Does anyone have any suggestions on which path I should choose?
