Sounds like a nice set-up! Hondata is a great tuning system IMO. However, I would not go for a s100, but rather a s200 at the least.....if you have the money look into buying a s300 system.

Are you planning on tuning this car, or are you taking it to a shop... if a shop is doing it.... ask the tuner what he/she prefers to tune with.

yup a chipped p28 w/ hondata is prolly the best way to go but the most expensive. If you looking for a cheap solution check out chrome and uberdata, I believe they are both free! =)

If you plan on tuning yourself, or with a friend helping (that's what I do), then I would suggest Hondata. Does anyone know if you are able to tune anything else (crome ectune etc etc) other than Hondata with your laptop? I really am unsure of this. Also, if you plan to tune yourself, make sure you get a wideband o2 sensor... it'll make tuning a whole hell of alot easier.

Croninc is right... expect to pay around $500-$600 (at least) for a Hondata s300 installed in a p28. If you want cheaper, the s200 installed in a p28 can be found for like $250-$300.

I have the s300, and love it!!!! You can control almost everything right from your laptop while the car is running!
