Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a CARB Compliant / Exempt FlashPro?
A: "CARB" is the common term for the California Air Resources Board, which is responsible for determining if calibrations could affect emissions. A CARB Compliant / Exempt FlashPro, or just CARB FlashPro for short, only allows editing and uploading calibrations which are determined to not alter any emissions related parameters in the ECU. Within the USA, you must use the CARB FlashPro for any emissions controlled vehicle that is not being used for sanctioned off-road race use, even if you live outside California.
Q: Are there base calibrations?
A: Yes, for common part combinations, plus turbo / superchargers kits for popular applications. Keep in mind that CARB FlashPros usually have less base calibrations available.
Q: Do I need dyno tuning?
A: It shouldn't be necessary for common part combinations (intake, exhaust, etc.), but you still have the option of custom tuning if you wish to get a little more. Camshafts and race headers probably will need tuning to get the most of the them - it will depend on the manufacturer of the part. This question and answer does not apply to CARB FlashPros.
Q: Can I get rid of the MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor?
A: You can switch to a MAP based calibration (recommended for forced induction and/or cams). You need to still physically retain the MAF sensor because it also contains the IAT sensor. This question and answer does not apply to CARB FlashPros.
Q: Will this work on more than one vehicle?
A: The FlashPro is locked to one vehicle. It can be unlocked and transferred to another vehicle by returning the ECU to stock.
Q: So does that mean one Hondata FlashPro can only work with one ECU or car only? Which means I can't buy one FlashPro and use it together with a few of my buddies cars?
A: One ECU and vehicle at a time. You can unlock the FlashPro by returning the ECU to stock, and then transfer to another vehicle.
Q: Can I share the calibrations I make for my car?
A: Yes.
Q: Do I need the laptop in the vehicle to reflash the ECU?
A: No. The FlashPro can upload either with or without a laptop.
Q: Is there a VTEC window?
A: Yes. This means that VTEC will operate based on RPM and engine load. For example, a supercharger reflash could have a VTEC window from 3200 RPM - 6000 RPM. At full throttle, VTEC operates at 3200 RPM. At light throttle, VTEC operates at 6000 RPM, and for load between full and light the VTEC will shift between 3200 RPM and 6000 RPM.
Q: Any option of immobilizer control?
A: The immobilizer cannot be disabled. Hondata has implemented a number of features designed to protect the owner of the vehicle from theft, and one of these is not to allow the immobilizer to be disabled. This is going to be much less of an issue than previous products because the ECU does not need to be removed / swapped.
Q: If the ECU had been reflashed by another maker, can FlashPro still work?
A: Probably - we could tell you based off the ECU part & serial numbers plus the calibration ID. When you unlock the FlashPro it will only be reflashed back to a stock calibration.
Q: Will dealers need a software license?
A: No. Every FlashPro will come with the full tuning software (FlashProManager).
Q: Do I need to send my ECU to Hondata?
A: No. Your ECU does not need to be modified for FlashPro.
