From what Ive read about Neptune, it seems to be shaping up to be a solid Honda rom editor. I almost kinda like the idea that it isnt available to the public yet. Having smart people using it in controlled (dyno) conditions means the software author gets fast, accurate feed back and bug reports Im sure. When it does go public, I hope someone I know buys it so I can play with it myself.

You put someone else's tuned ECU in your car and you expect miralces? HA...come on, be real.

Neptune is by far the most feature rich and proven Honda ECU engine management system at this point.

Not to mention it was created soley by one guy. I have the upmost respect for James (HRTuning) and what he has done for the Honda community. When Neptune goes public, you can bet your *** I'll be the 1st one in line to buy...

no doubt, i've tuned quite a few cars with near identical (same engine, same turbo, same injectors, same size exhaust etc.) and never had 'magic' results by using a previously tuned map, unfortunately it doesn't work like that, but it is a good starting point.

lol seriously, Neptune is probably one of the best Honda based programs right now. It's the same if not better than Hondata s300, and will be considerably cheaper.

Are you talking from experience in using the program or just what you heard through internet advertising
