ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!
Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956
Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)
Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.
These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.
1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.
The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.
The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

The only thing is that with any emulator such as the Ostrich, you can't leave the map on there... well, you CAN, but it's not smart.
Hondata isn't bad. It's very good. But overpriced and beyond the needs of many tuners on this board. Same with Motec and Electromotive, as I mentioned above. Fantastic products, but the cost outweighs the benefits and usage. Not to mention, such a package (Hondata included) must be purchased for a large sum up front. With the chipped ECU, crome/uber, ostrich, chip burner setup, you can spend smaller amounts of money at a time.
For this community, it's difficult to plop a large sum down for one thing... when you can often get the car itself for the price of one quality item!

I believe there are other such emulators, but the Ostrich is the only one I've ever seen used in person (MRX used it when he tuned my car)
Does Ostrich have a website for more information?

Ostrich is a piece of equipment. You can get it from xenocron.com or moates.net.
Fuck Hondata. If you're gona spend that much money, you might as well go with Neptune RTP. It fucking owns the hell out of ANY Hondata.
OR wait for eCtune.
There is a new ostrich that you can install and keep inside your chipped ecu. SO you never need to burn a chip. Also, with crome or even uberdata, there is only one USB cable connecting from the laptop to the ecu
Please don't talk out of your ass unless you're 100% sure.

You can't say Hondata is bad... It's a similar argument when you're comparing an H22A to and H22A type S. Type S makes more power. Regular is cheaper. Cheaper can be made faster with the same money. However, it requires more stuff to do it, and possibly more stuff to learn.
Hondata: plug it in, learn how to use it, and tune. Expensive.
Crome/ostrich/etc... Multiple pieces of equipment which must be installed properly. Cheaper.
Whichever one makes sense to you is the right one to get.

True... but the general vibe of the knowledgeable tuners on here is that Hondata sucks, which isn't true at all. I just wanted to point that out, before we get an anti-Hondata click going on here for no reason.
Jose, you have a good reason to prefer other applications. You know what you need, what you want, and how to evaluate different systems. Any beginner that sees "Fuck Hondata" will start regurgitating that sentiment. Next thing you know, people will be saying that they're crap. Not that I care about their reputation, and I'm sure they don't care about the opinions of a bunch of 18 year old tuners messing with equally old cars...
Still, I've seen the opinions of the educated turn into the facts of the uneducated.

Well said, Deev. I wasn't knocking any of the other options (Crome/Ostrich...), I was stating what was possible with the Hondata. It is the route I chose and I am extremely happy with it.

And d112, I wasn't talking out my ass. I stated clearly And I stand corrected, but it seems to me that each time you come back at me, you're adding more equipment (ie: emulators and such).
No one here "hates" hondata, its just that we are cheap, and no one wants to spend money on something they can get for 1/3 price.
You're opinion is just as valid as anyone here's. However, im not going to suggest something i dont personally think is worth the money.

A hondata chip has an emulator integrated into it. For crome/uber, it's external.
I haven't said Hondata sucks. It's a great program, just not worth the money considering there are much better(neptune) options for the same price.
I've tuned with more programs than you probably know of.
