can I only use the Hondata USB serial ??

Post by dadon1 »

Will the S200 only communicate with Hondata USB serial cable or can I buy one at radio shack?? If so which brand will work?

What exactly are you trying to do? What is the serial number of the s200?

You cannot make any changes by datalogging. If you want to make changes you should upgrade to the s300. The only other way to make changes is to take the car to one of our deaelrs and have them retune it on the dyno.

Details on upgrading can be found at http://www.hondata.com/s300upgradeform.html

No you cannot. You would be much better off selling some of the parts and upgrading the s200 to an s300. It is much easier to use and has more features.
