My brother in law just did the flash to his 2018 SI. He also installed an intake for better sound. Huge difference in performance after the flash. Its a lease so he will reset and install the oem intake when his 3 yrs are due. Piece of cake, its that easy.
Thanks man. I'm literally uploading flashpro calibration right now. Your video helped greatly. I know you're motor went but know you'll come back 10x harder! Keep your head high because you're appreciated by the Civic X community and keep pushing!
****CAUTION***** The +9 PSI TUNE WILL CAUSE YOUR CLUTCH TO SLIP AND EVENTUALLY NEED REPLACEMENT!!! It may not happen right away but MANY people that have downloaded the +9 PSI tune have had to replace their clutch after as soon as a few thousand miles. Its recommended to ONLY do the +6 tune which REALLY wakes up the motor!!! UNLESS you want to spend $$$ upgrading your clutch.
Motorcityman Man when choosing the +9 base map it does pop up with that warning already before flashing the ecu. Thank you for the insight as well though.
@@PhongVLG Ok Phong.....Thanks for the clarification...... Say are u in So Cal? If so would u be interested in flashing my 18 SI for a fee? I dont have a lap top. I live near Temecula Ca. Thanks!
I cant wait! Should be here in 2 days! I accept the challenge. Honda's going to finally give us some torque and then make a lousy clutch...thanks fuckers
Just ordered this to get rid of the rev hang in my 2020 Si Coupe. Thank you very much for this video. I literally purchased the Hondata just to do that as it's been driving me nuts for over a year now. So goddamn excited for the rev hang to be gone in my car. It drives me bonkers. Gonna be money well spent. I dropped a like on the video. This is super helpful. This is my first time using Hondata and my first time dealing with rev hang in a vehicle. I don't want anything else. I just want rev hang gone (people might say it's not worth the money just to get rid of the rev hang but to me, it is. It's either the rev hang gets disabled or the car goes). I'm crazy excited to be able to do this to my car.
Looking forward to it, one month in roughly with my Si and just running stock for now... haha I’m hoping to get Hondata though, seems like a good investment!
just bought my hondata for my type r , going to run e25 tune 58hp 78tq. 358 total hp about 370 tq to the wheels.. everything stock.. The clutch on the SI is made in India and if you plan on running more than 6lb of boost you will eventually run in to clutch slippage and will need a new clutch on the 9lb boost tune.. so you might want to put that on your list next summer for a new clutch, after you burn out the junky stock si clutch.
CSIG1001 yes, that is correct. One of the weak points in the civic si is its clutch, it’s like paper. Hondata warns you that running the +9 psi can cause clutch slippage. I’ve already actually ordered my Stage 3 Clutch. So expect to see that in a later video 😉
1st Question ===>When the clutch was burn like slipped so what was the symptoms 2nd Question ==>on the diagnose or in the screen witch code was it coming.......?
Just wanted to chime in with a thanks. As a fellow gen10 Si owner it’s cool seeing tips and tricks from someone who has way more experience with the modding and tuner scene than I do. Thx, bro.
Great tutorial bro. You did a phenomenal job. It helped me out a lot. But I do have a question is high octane considered 91 premium gas with the +6 good for daily freeway driving?
Question, i only have 91 in ny area, so i cant run 93 tunes from companies, but i thought i had read you can add modifications and click a list of them as you do the tune, is that true, or is that for deep dive tuning? Im just trying to do basic stuff for a daily driver
Phong i have honda civic touring 1.5l turbo automatic i got installed skunk2 manifold + TURBO UPGRADE LOT MORE AND I GOT INSTALLED my self hondata 2016+ high occton tunned after that I got transmission problem parking to drive shift parking to reverse shift taking lot time to take shift its to much delay in shifting sometimes on road lights i stop car is not moving??????you have any idea
Hey bro I tried to do these steps which worked but did you ever get errors saying collision system problem or lkas or brake system light on after when you turn the car back on?
Just got my hondata that I’m trying to install but when I got to upload my calibration it kicks me out and shuts down the whole app any ideas of what it might be?
Hey man, so I’m looking to do mods to my 17 si, but am scared I’m gonna void my warranty! It’s a lease, but im most likely buying it out by the end of the lease.. has anything you’ve done affected your warranty? How about going to service department, do they say anything?
RJ Briscoe honestly, anything you do could void warranty. It’s really dependent on how the dealer treats it, you may mod out your exhaust but have a transmission problem & they could say you voided warranty even though the transmission has nothing to do with the exhaust. It’s honestly up to you, things that you can easily bolt-on/bolt-off are my suggestion. That way if you need to take it in, just bolt it off and put it back to stock. Now these ecu flashes can void warranty since it is messing with your ecu, you can always bring it back to stock, but some say the mechanics can tell if you messed with your ecu. In the end, it’s up to you. If you believe your gunna buy it out and have confidence you won’t need warranty go for it. I’ve owned mine for 8 months and I’ve kind thrown warranty out the window, it’s a Honda if it needs fixing it’ll be cheap, but these are very reliable building cars.
I recommend finding your closest Honda dealer that offers this tune. There’s only about 8 in the U.S. We have one here in Austin, TX. We confirmed that warranty wouldn’t be voided when we did the tune on a 17 Type R. However, at the end they will give you the little module for you to do more mods on your own. BUT BEWARE, doing anything on your own will void warranty. We also got paper saying warranty wasn’t going to be voided since they offered the tune. I took a couple day. They take out the ECU and send it to California for Hondata to do all the work. In total Honda Dealer charged around $980. If you need some numbers for the Austin, TX dealer, let me know.
PhongVLG granted the transmission and exhaust are not connected as a mechanical set. On the surface you have a valid point. However when you connect them with a bag of bones behind the wheel, they become connected. So the assumption is you abused the car. Which is a fair assumption.
Looking to buy a used hondata FlashPro. Do you think the steps of registering and locking the FlashPro to your car would be a problem since it was already used on a different car???
Leo Hernandez No it shouldn’t, usually the owner should have flashed his car back to stock which therefore allows him to unlock the device from his car. It’s how the device works in order to prevent multiple cars from being flashed at the same time, otherwise people would just flash their car and then their friends. Only way to transfer is if the car that was flashed is now back to stock. So you should be fine to lock the flashpro to your car.
I have a desktop not a laptop. Does the flashpro need to be connected to the computer and the obd2 port at the same time? Or can you go from computer to flashpro to flashpro to obd2 port?
Friskoism In all honesty, which ever you choose you can’t go wrong. Both have some advantages over one another, but it’s all preference. My tuner just prefers Hondata, it has been around longer.
PhongVLG Thanks for the replay! One more question though: Are you worried about the extra boost hurting your engine? Can our 1.5 liters actually handle it?
Friskoism the presets by both flash tuners are safe for our engine, I mean like any modified car your definitely cutting the life span of you engine, but that being said.. don’t think our little 1.5L engines can’t handle. You’ll be surprised to find out the stock turbo can hold up to 32 psi of boost, 29 is the safest limit though. There are currently a few people pushing up to 300+ hp out of our 1.5L, this engine has a lot of potential, especially with a swapped turbo, the limits are even extended!
PhongVLG Thanks a ton for the reply! I think I'm going to go with the Hondata after your video. If you could do a review of the different performance calibrations and how you like each one, that'd be an awesome video. Thanks for the quick replies and great content. Keep it up!
@@Friskoism The Hondata and the K tuner both do extensive tests to reveal the limits of the tune and the turbo/engine/transmission. What they do in testing is purposely over tune it to find what the limit for the tune will be with what the car can handle until potential damage can happen, then what they do in the tune that you'd install is tone it down to just below what would cause damage to your car so that you know it's safe to run.
Thanks for this! I just installed FlashPro on my 2018 Civic Si. Question: Are you having knocking show up on your sensor list? Knock #1,2,3,4 is how it’s labeled. I’m having multiple knock readings and concerned this will lead to issues and there is not too much info online about this.
A B to my knowledge... knock 1, 2, 3, & 4. Are the cylinders. The main concern is your knock level. Which would be shown as a percentage. Example: 54.68% . For Hondata, the lowest your knock level will go is 53-54% that’s nominal. Maybe with hard driving it may cause it to raise a bit. If you ever go above let say 80% then there may be an issue or not. Usually knock is counted by a high pitch frequency. If your knock goes back down after driving conservatively for a while, your fine. But knock is definitely an important aspect with these cars. Things that can cause knock: tune, fuel quality (make sure you get good quality gas), intake temps too high, etc. Any concerns DM me on Instagram. I’d be glad to help you with anymore information .
A B of course, glad I could help. Again feel free to dm me on Instagram for any further questions, I’ll do my best to respond as quick as I can! Good luck & enjoy! 🤙🏼
Just a question. I plan on tuning my 2019 si once I get an exhaust and an intercooler. I was curious if there was any tunes to increase hp to like 225-235? I don’t plan on going hard on my car I just want a little more power from stock
Yoshi5oh - nope, the tune is a free map tune that can go with either a stock or modified car. There is a location to add variables like that, but to be honest, at that point you might as well get a tuner to do a custom tune through your hondata.
Question: once you upload the program, how it works? I meant, how often you need to repeat this process? Does anything have to be plugged on the car obd? Thanx
I love your channel and your build!! Quick question in registering my flash pro. After putting my name and email it asked me 3 questions regarding us street race or outside USA. The only way I could finish I out outside of USA. Is that the only way to do it ?
I have a 2019 sport touring hatchback CVT been running a +6 psi tune for awhile now and no issues. However I do have an aftermarket cold air intake and intercooler
@@byronrecarte4664 I had the +3 tune on for about 20mins it was underwhelming so went straight to +6. A coworker of mine has a +6 tune on his but its manual with upgraded clutch. If you’re worried safest bet is to run high octane the higher the better. I run 91 coworker does 93 and found that 93 gives him better results. I now have a full exhaust downpipe frontpipe catback with intake, intercooler and custom tune making about 220hp. Go with the +6 it can handle it for sure. I drive my car hard and I’ve no issues
Hello, can you tell me what kind of clutch you upgraded to? I flashed my 2018 Si and so far the clutch has hung in there at the 9PSI but I want to upgrade before it goes. Any other parts you changed with the clutch?
A B Currently I’m on clutchmasters fx350, I just swapped the clutch and re-used the stock flywheel. If you do the same, just ask if the flywheel needs to be resurfaced.
After your done downloading the tune to your ecu and turn on your car afterwards with the new tune, do u have to unplug the unit from the car or do u keep it plugged in???
Sauce BoyZ The Car is currently custom tuned, so I’ve already surpassed the base tunes. But I couldn’t really tell you how well the CVT transmission will handle, I know a few CVT’s that push passed the 6psi base map, but neither of us know how long it could last/hold for. So my advice would be to tune at your own risk on the CVT’s.
2018 Honda Civic Si and I had a Hondata also, I ran the Hondata at 1,000 miles I was running 9psi with FTS. At 2,000 I blew my turbo, code p0299 came on and I had to replace my turbo and the only mod I had was a boomba BOV. Idk if I’m the only one who experienced this but I had to replace my whole turbo straight out of my pocket. Bummer.
Im in the same boat as you. I do believe Hondata has tunes for stock cvt. Its not the biggest gain but it definitely wakes up more. I would do some research on which tune that is because choose something to high and the belt will have scoring. Hondata actually did a video on the cvt being pushed past its limit. Showing the scoring after like 6 hrs
NinjaWasim if your 17’ Civic is the 1.5L Turbo than yes, hondata doesn’t work for the 2.0 vtec motors. My Si doesn’t have VTEC, as long as it’s the 1.5L Turbo, you’re good! 👍🏼
NinjaWasim that’s a great question, I actually had no idea that Honda made a 1.8L for the 10th generations. Unfortunately hondata nor ktuner have applications for your 1.8L, so it wouldn’t work for you there. But I’d reccomend searching up any other flash tunes to see if there is one for your vehicle.
Jason Wood the stock si clutch is like paper, the moment you flash these base maps it will eventually have it slip. My advice is to upgrade it regardless. But this is an old video of mine, I don’t have the stock clutch. I’m currently on clutchmasters fx350
So I just got hondata for my 2017 Honda Civic Ex hatchback (CVT). On the menu it says +3 and they also have one that says +6 high octane. I have a full tank of regular 87 oct. Now would it be ok to run that tank of 87 on 6 psi high octane even tho I don’t have high octane or should I put the regular +3
@@PhongVLG ok great thanks for getting back to me i have to wait July to get the civic 1.5 turbo no Si for Trinidad is what im being told by the dealer.
TheReal__ Xavier in the base map calibration it is based off of street intakes, so if your running a race MAF the base maps won’t work. But you can purchase the tsp stage 1 tune from two step performance and add if you have a street intake or race intake. Then upload it through hondata
TheReal__ Xavier then you are fine to use any base map or you can just purchase the tsp stage 1 tune and upload it on hondata. Your intake is already accounted for
Francis Demilio you can unlock the device and flash another civic, but you cannot flash multiple civics at once. Once you tune a Civic, it is locked to the car until you revert the ecu back to stock. Then you can unlock it and apply it to another civic.
@@dizydank Dont pay more than about $350 to have the tune installed or better yet do it yourself, its real ez as you see in the video. Some shops mark it up to $500 or $600 but it's a RIP off because there's NO LABOR involved. HONDADATA shows the price at $350 on their site
You WILL burn up your clutch if u do the +9 tune.........do the +6 tune you WILL feel a BIG difference with just the +6 tune and its MUCH easier on the clutch.

My brother in law just did the flash to his 2018 SI. He also installed an intake for better sound. Huge difference in performance after the flash. Its a lease so he will reset and install the oem intake when his 3 yrs are due. Piece of cake, its that easy.

Hello, can you tell me what kind of clutch you upgraded to? I flashed my 2018 Si and so far the clutch has hung in there at the 9PSI but I want to upgrade before it goes. Any other parts you changed with the clutch?
A B Currently I’m on clutchmasters fx350, I just swapped the clutch and re-used the stock flywheel. If you do the same, just ask if the flywheel needs to be resurfaced.
PhongVLG Thank you! I’m in Los Angeles - any particular place you recommend to get the job done or to purchase the part? Truly appreciate your input!
how do you decide which calibration fits your vehicle?
After your done downloading the tune to your ecu and turn on your car afterwards with the new tune, do u have to unplug the unit from the car or do u keep it plugged in???
Brandon Gomez no. You may go ahead and disconnect it once the tune is uploaded to the ecu.
Man I thinking about grabbing a gtr but man these si are looking nasty this one is nasty too man front loook sick
Question have you ever install the stage 1 TSP with your hondata ?
Does this work if turbo is added on the naturally aspirated 2.0l? 2017 Honda Civic?
So you can’t use anti lag with stock up-pipe and down pipe?
Well explained
Why Hondata and not Ktuner? Really cant decide which one to get man :/
What is the difference between Hondata turbo CARB Flashpro vs turbo Flashpro?
oscar rodriguez CARB is emmision regulation compliant in all 50 states
Did you chose USA street vehicle or outside the USA
Outside USA will allow you to fully use it.
Can I undo this and go back to everything stock at some point if I want to sell my car?
Yes you can.
Nice vid!
Do all OTS maps come with anti lag or launch control?
How does the car from 3psi to 9psi can the car handle the performance mods?
Have you tune to a 6psi yet? Planning on doing mines to six psi but I heard cvt will break
Sauce BoyZ The Car is currently custom tuned, so I’ve already surpassed the base tunes. But I couldn’t really tell you how well the CVT transmission will handle, I know a few CVT’s that push passed the 6psi base map, but neither of us know how long it could last/hold for. So my advice would be to tune at your own risk on the CVT’s.
I’m on a 3 psi right now some peoople say they had on 9 psi and had it for year and no problem
2018 Honda Civic Si and I had a Hondata also, I ran the Hondata at 1,000 miles I was running 9psi with FTS. At 2,000 I blew my turbo, code p0299 came on and I had to replace my turbo and the only mod I had was a boomba BOV. Idk if I’m the only one who experienced this but I had to replace my whole turbo straight out of my pocket. Bummer.
$2,500
Why did you go Hondata instead of Ktuner
Easier
i have a 2020 civic LX automatic CVT and will it work only for manual cars ?
Im in the same boat as you. I do believe Hondata has tunes for stock cvt. Its not the biggest gain but it definitely wakes up more. I would do some research on which tune that is because choose something to high and the belt will have scoring. Hondata actually did a video on the cvt being pushed past its limit. Showing the scoring after like 6 hrs
hey man great video! just wondering would hondata work on my '17 civic vti-s (non-vtec)? does it have to have a vtec engine?
NinjaWasim if your 17’ Civic is the 1.5L Turbo than yes, hondata doesn’t work for the 2.0 vtec motors. My Si doesn’t have VTEC, as long as it’s the 1.5L Turbo, you’re good! 👍🏼
PhongVLG Ahhh okay, so my engine is the 1.8 non turbo so I can’t get it tuned?
NinjaWasim that’s a great question, I actually had no idea that Honda made a 1.8L for the 10th generations. Unfortunately hondata nor ktuner have applications for your 1.8L, so it wouldn’t work for you there. But I’d reccomend searching up any other flash tunes to see if there is one for your vehicle.
Does it works for 2013 Accord Touring?
Hey does this work for the 2017 hatchback sport?
GATEWAYFLMZ yes it does, link is in the description. One is for the Si, one is for any 1.5L Turbo non-si’s like your hatch 👍🏼
Would you need supporting mods to make this worth it? Can you notice a difference on just a base tune?
Do you have to run 93 octane with that flash
Jason Wood Nope, I used 91 octane. From where I’m from there isn’t 93.
@@PhongVLG do you think that flash will mess with the clutch I'm using a k tuner how is your clutch holding up
Jason Wood the stock si clutch is like paper, the moment you flash these base maps it will eventually have it slip. My advice is to upgrade it regardless. But this is an old video of mine, I don’t have the stock clutch. I’m currently on clutchmasters fx350
@@PhongVLG look thanks for the info I was going to do the 6 psi flash maybe stock clutch would hold for awhile what you think love the info
Can I use it with a Honda Civic sport 2020 2.0 engine
So I just got hondata for my 2017 Honda Civic Ex hatchback (CVT). On the menu it says +3 and they also have one that says +6 high octane. I have a full tank of regular 87 oct. Now would it be ok to run that tank of 87 on 6 psi high octane even tho I don’t have high octane or should I put the regular +3
Rich Waffle You’ll be fine on it with 87, just won’t get that much power. But when you get the chance, go ahead and throw in 91/93 octane from now on
PhongVLG thank ya for the info
Where did you get your body kit
Hey do thing the RACECHIP product is a good product for the civic?
Farzul Ali I wouldn’t waste the money on the racechip, this is a device tuners can use to tune the car as well. Not only just base maps
@@PhongVLG ok great thanks for getting back to me i have to wait July to get the civic 1.5 turbo no Si for Trinidad is what im being told by the dealer.
Hello bro I need some help before I can sale my honda
Difference between more expensive and less?
Do I have to keep it connected to the car at all times after the reflash?
JeffDaSituation no you do not, you can disconnect it once process is done.
I have another question. I plan on using the Hondata app either on my phone or the head unit. Do I have to keep the device connected to my odometer?
JeffDaSituation yes, it will have to stay connected then to run as a Bluetooth device. That way it can collect the data from your car
Do you use the app to monitor your car?
Just wondering bro if you would help someone out that cannot afford the hondata, help them with the tune?
This avoids warranty?
Ok, so I got a cobra air intake, once I get the hondata does it includes in the calibration ?
TheReal__ Xavier in the base map calibration it is based off of street intakes, so if your running a race MAF the base maps won’t work. But you can purchase the tsp stage 1 tune from two step performance and add if you have a street intake or race intake. Then upload it through hondata
PhongVLG I believe I have the street one .
TheReal__ Xavier then you are fine to use any base map or you can just purchase the tsp stage 1 tune and upload it on hondata. Your intake is already accounted for
Do you think that flash will mess up the clutch
Jason Wood yes after awhile
You have to go aftermarket
Does hondata void warranty?
Gustavo Balleza yes, flashing the ecu will void warranty.
@@PhongVLG there's suppose to be an option to flash it back stock
can you show Dash app install?
What radar detector do you have
TheAngryGoat916 Valentine One
I assume this will void all the warranties?
Yup but it's not impossible to reverse the tune
can you use 1 hondata to flash multiple civics? thanks
Francis Demilio you can unlock the device and flash another civic, but you cannot flash multiple civics at once. Once you tune a Civic, it is locked to the car until you revert the ecu back to stock. Then you can unlock it and apply it to another civic.
What made you get hondata and not ktuner??
Does it need to keep plug in? Thanks.
Arvy Guieb nope, once you’ve tuned the car you can go ahead and un-plug it.
@@PhongVLG thanks man
How much did you paid?
any clutch issues yet?
AJ Roberts I couldn’t say, I moved fast with my mods so as I kept adding I ended up swapping the clutch for a race clutch. Clutchmasters FX350
@@PhongVLG did you go to a honda service to get it swapped or a transmission shop? also if you dont mind me asking, how much was the service?
@@dizydank
Dont pay more than about $350 to have the tune installed or better yet do it yourself, its real ez as you see in the video.
Some shops mark it up to $500 or $600 but it's a RIP off because there's NO LABOR involved.
HONDADATA shows the price at $350 on their site
You WILL burn up your clutch if u do the +9 tune.........do the +6 tune you WILL feel a BIG difference with just the +6 tune and its MUCH easier on the clutch.
thank you for all the info i actually have one more question is there a tune on here for 93 gas?
You bought the 2016+ turbo SI tune right ?
Mark Rob correct!
