Hondata can't cool intake temps.

My cars had the supporting mods. I was one of the first adopters of water injection back in the mid-2000's, and one of the first to run Hondata around here, back when the alternative was V-AFC and a VTEC controller. The bottom line is that some things cannot be tuned out. High Compression still needs to be optimized with the proper fuel and timing. Same goes for FI, especially when you're maxing out the size of your blower or turbo. Small turbo/blower are designed for a certain cfm. Anything past that and it's a fine line between hot intake temps, and temps hot enough to cause knock.


Btw, if anyone is into old electronics whether for tuning, or for ironic purposes, I found my old VTEC controller.
Man, that brought me back
