He's tuned my car twice in the past and I was happy with the results both times. Is this based on bad experience?Romain.
<redacted> said his gtr would kangaroo below 10 mph, stall at junctions, hesitate on gear changes, literally hideous everywhere. But full throttle at strip it was fine. The gtr i just finished with drives nicer than an 80k audi and the pedal is the torque delivery and its instantaneous. But iv'e got 3 months of time in that map
Good to hear! What made you go for hondata in the end. Might have thought Paul West talked you into ktuner as I know he favours itWell I took the plunge and went with Hondata through Paul West and paid for a remote tune. It was more complicated than I thought but im rubbish with computers so for most its a walk in the park.
So ECU jailbroken and new map up loaded and what a difference, night and day different, more pull, smoother pull, so much more responsive and induction is louder along with dump valve sounds,
Paul says there is still some fine tuning to do and I need to send him some datalogging to do this but initial thoughts are very good.
I will update here once we have completed the next stage but Hondata and Paul have made my car even better to drive.

Thanks! So what do you think the power sits at now?
****UPDATE****
well we are now onto V2 of the remote mapping and the car feels way more powerful again, this has given me huge smiles but has also thrown me some dilemmas, to get the Datalogging required involves some serious speed and hard driving, this is really hard to do living in rural Norfolk and along with traffic and poor weather its not ideal, I really think the next stage is to book a few hrs on the rollers as I really don't want to end up with a driving ban or the car in a dyke/drain, both would be a huge negative impact to owning such a wonderful car
Gonna speak to Paul and see what he advises, remote tuning is cool but on road datalogging carries many risks on the local roads around here.
needless to say though the car is awesome with the current map and way more power than I expected, still happy with the money spent.

It's typically full throttle 4th all the way up the rev range from when I had my S2000 remote mapped.
