Procede..."Need for SPEED"

I finally got my laptop working with the USB through the glove box connection and I love it...It kind of made me feel like the movie "Need for Speed" I mean datalogging my runs and looking at the guages and all those numbers trickling up and down that corresponds to my engine function...Its just awesome..My friend was sitting with the laptop on top of him looking at the boost spikes for me and he was just in awe...I told him that i was able to load different maps and set different torque settings to make the car run the way I want it to...He was just amazed and ask me where i got this program from and that he wanted to have one for his Honda!!!!! In conclusion, I am really happy with the Procede and its power output, but the best part about it is the fact that i can fiddle with the computer and as an enthusiast it just makes me feel so much more in-TUNED with the car...Yes others provide similar powers, but for what its worth Procede is worth every $1500 that i spend because indeed i am living the movie "NEED FOR SPEED" when i have the laptop in the car!!!!

I would love to get my usb cable into the glove box too

Let us know what you are finding with the data logs, boost spikes, octane, and torque settings

its definately a great mod especially with all these changes and maps, plus the need to bump up the values of the torque % to reach maximum boost output recommended by Shiv at 14-15.5 at 5500 rpms...It just would suck to always get into that Ecu cover to update...But also its a new gizmo in the car that u can play around with and bug out with...People who see it will think that your a total GEARHEAD!!!
