What’s the Best Tuning Device?

[LilDragonfly]

I’ve had my 2018 civic sport for a couple months now and I’m ready to add a tune. I’ve heard good/bad about hondata and Ktuner. I’m wondering which would be the better of the two or if there’s another preferred choice

Let me copy and paste some tuning device usage stats from my "world famous" Tuned CivicX Experience & Reliability Thread:

Hondata used for tuning: 197; Race (171) Carb (26)
KTuner used for tuning: 745; V1.2 (419) V2 (326)
Other devices used: JB4 3; RaceChip 4; Motec 4
Usage rate: KTuner 79%; Hondata 20%; Other 1%

Draw your own conclusions. BTW, your title is misleading. You should have asked "what's the best tuning device".

Also, you do know you're at the 11th gen forum, right? CivicX.com would be a better choice for your 2018 needs.

Haha. I didn’t even notice that. Thanks.

I ran Hondata and KTuner on my 2017 10th gen Si. I recommend KTuner.

What was it about KTuner you preferred?

KTuner has more options. It’s just better on these platforms.

I’d recommend KTuner, take a look at Dereks breakdown of the pros and cons of each, he tunes both every day so I trust his opinion
