just bought turbo, need opinion

hey,
(ihave ep3)
i just picked up a used greddy turbo (less then 3000 miles on it) with BOV, and timer.. i have the hondata reflash, but the greddy kit's emanage comes tuned for I./c, so i can done 1 of 2 things

1) upgrade to hondata kpro, and sell emanage, (kpro does all that emanage does any way more, and still allows me to redline at 7700rpm)

or

2) sell hondata, and get an i/c.

this is a hard choice, because i love hondata, and i cant see myself relining at 6800 again! but then i/c would look so sweet....

either way both set ups will be about 230-250 whp at 6.5 psi (wiht hondata) or 8ish (with i/c)

thanks!!

Used emanage $150-200 on ebay.

Get IC then upgrade with K-pro.
Then we can have DIY day.

Not sure you can run the reflashed Hondata ECU w/ boost because it advances the timing which means KABOOOOM w/ dentonation.

KPRO is the Hondata EMU, he said he just has the Hondata Reflash. I know you can run the KPRO with boost. Hell we are helping a local RSX build one.
