UberData
Ok.. lookin for some in depth info on UberData, I've been hearing good things.. i'd like to know who's using it, what type of experience you have with it & pro's & con's.. please be as descriptive as possible.
keep in mind, i'm very good with electronics & can sodder very precise points, so that end of it would be fine.. i'm lookin more from a usability & quality standpoint.
anyinfo is greatly appreciated as always.. thanks in advance!

I run a P28 chipped with uberdata, and set up for datalogging with the nokia USB cable.
go here for a guide:
http://home.mn.rr.com/keebler65/honda/
I have a Willem advanced chip burner that i use to burn new bin files created by uberdata.
feelings: I love uberdata! its poor mans hondata, with most of the same features. I am turbo'ed, and have never gotten a check engine light due to the MAP sensor, or anything like that. I did have to do a OBD1 conversion, but i was happy to be able to get rid of my cat and secondary O2 sensor without problems.
cons: it takes a bit of playing, and be very careful when creating roms. dont get too trigger happy, cause obviously you can do some pretty crazy damage to your car if you mess stuff up too much. its not idiot proof. But its cool, i started using it before i went turbo and i advanced timing 5 degrees electronically, for some nice little gains.
as for chipping, i suck at soldering, so i had a guy do it for me. I did solder in my datalogging cable however.
by far the biggest advantage of uberdata is the seamless integration of fuel and ignition maps for boost, plain and simple. great boost transition.

Anyway, I have chipped 7 or 8 ECU's for locals with Uberdata. They have all worked great, from B16s to D15s, D16s, GS-Rs... For what it costs, (nothing), it is well worth it IMO. If you take the time to figure out how everything works you should have no problems.
Now I'm working on getting turboedit figured out for the OBD0 guys...

I have a Hondata s200 and I'm in the process of switching to Uberdata. Mainly because I like doing things myself. Same ability as Hondata but with everything right there at your finger tips.
I love it, 1.8 with a few fixes works great. For me it wasn't until I tried a few things that were kind of dumb that I got really comfortable with it.
I've set up four ECUs now for local guys and one for myself, really easy to do. If you're chipped an ECU to use one of those chips you can from Ebay your soldering work is done all ready. (datalogging cable not counted) The RadioCrap USB cable works perfectly for that BTW.

My roomate has it on his integra. I have to say it looks pretty awesome. He has his tuned very well with his wideband o2 and it makes some pretty good power. He was able to crush my s2000 in a race.
This is his setup:
B18a stock bottom end
mildly ported head
T57 turbo on custom tubular manifold
custom 3" dp
Thermal RD exhaust
Greddy IC
DSM 450cc injectors
Walbro 255 fuel pump
that car is pretty damn fast too, it spools by about 4000rpm and pulls pretty hard, on his uberdata he was also able to setup his 2step launch. uberdata flat out works
if you would like more info on it, feel free to IM me at munkyxsentrix and i will give u more insight on his setup.......i guess he doesn't want his times and what not posted online until he is satisfied with them
