Pros:
-Easy to work with
-Easy to install
-Cheap
-Lots of features that VAFC's don't have
-No more black smoke
-Much better than that ghetto blue box
-Compensates for larger injectors automatically
-Can have car running right after install without tuning
-Controls injector duty cycle, ignition timing, airflow adjustment, Vtec engagement, anti engine stall, boost cut limiters, etc.
Cons:
-OBD2 doesn't like it much. Learns around the program a little.
-Not much online support
-Have to hack up factory ECU harness
-Some issues with support tool
-Additional harnesses expensive
-Without support tool, it is practically worthless.
There are probably much more that I will encounter down the road, but it seems really good for my setup. If you have the money, go for the Hondata or the EMS. I don't want to go with either of those because the price doesn't justify the product since I will most likely not ever race my car; it is only for my personal driving pleasure.
