All those chips you see are BS, the only real way to "chip" a car is to tune a chipped ECU with Crome, Uberdata, etc. or buy Hondata.


And, they put the redline and fuel cutoff there for a reason. Why would you go over it?

I saw this ECU programming http://www.car-stuff.com/mmparts/hon...ance_chip.htmlwill this work ?
I heard that Hondata before.. But will this work for A/T trasmission ? And I can't seem to find them anywhere and if I see some its for RSX, Civic, Integra and S2000. No luck on finding one for an Accord..
I work in IT . I wish I can find this softwares that can let you reprogram your box..
Well from what I heard they said a higher cutoff is better ? I don't know if this is true ?

I really appreciate your quick response

I told you all those chips are BS, the only real way to chip the car is converting it to OBDI and tuning it with Crome or buy Hondata K-Pro, but neither of which will benefit you. Yes, having a higher revlimiter usually does mean more power and pushing a gear to a higher speed, but only on engine capable of turning that high. Crotch rocket engines can spin up to 16,000 rpms easily, but why does my Honda cut out at 6,250? Engine design. You can't just turn up the dial.

If you go turbo or n/a or something, sure I'll recommned you get Hondata, but you have a stock car, you can't really just get more power out of it...

Finch you cant run Hondata with a A/T, so that rules that out. And as for the upped rev limiter, most cars dont make power over redline anyways, and its really just asking for catastrophic engine failure.

They pick the redline based mostly on when the engine runs out of breath. You need a new cam or other internal work to let it breath at higher RPM. Gotta strengthen & balance stuff better too, if you want to go much higher.
