S200 purchased prior to S100 release, 3step rev limiter...

Post by aSTeRiX_2kSi »

Curious, now that the S200 comes standard with the 3step rev limiter after the release of the S100 is this upgrade avaialble free of charge to those that bought the S200 prior to the S100 release? Also would this be something a dealer can do while tuning the car via the rom-editor or does it require shipping the unit back to Hondata?

Obviously the push button, clutch switch & cable and shift light would be needed as well.

Thanks

3 step rev limiter

Post by Hondata »

When the s200 was first released it was offered for $295 with the 3 step as a $125 option. When the s200 was released the 3 step was offered as standard for $420. Many users thought that this was a step backwards so we changed back to the 3 step as an option for $125 If you purchased a s200 without the 3 step then you can get this option for $125.

Ah, didn't notice the price increase. For now I'll pass on the upgrade :)

Curious can the upgrade be done by the dealer/tuner along with the other parts that come with this feature or must the control box be sent back to Hondata?

Thanks.

The three step rev limiter makes the ecu go from Dr.jeckyl to Mr. Hyde!. Yes the upgrade can be done but you will need to send in the hondata box to hondata. Your vehicle will run with the CEL on and a maximum rev at 4000rpm until the box is returned.

Actually, the 3-step upgrade doesn't need to have the box returned to hondata. IT's just an addon. The 3 step only had to have the box returned for the staged systems, not the s200.

For the S200, the three step needs datalogging option to be installed to be able to enable it.

Second option is to have the dealer unlock 3 step option.

Last option is to send it back to Hondata.
