Turbo 1.5T & Type R
Two sections under one Honda & Acura platform. K-series covers port-injected K20 and K24 on Hondata KPro, K-Manager and FuelTech. Turbo covers the factory-turbo Civic 1.5T and K20C Type R on Hondata FlashPro. Each section keeps its own software, file types, coverage, turnaround, sample and start buttons.
/K24
Honda & Acura section
K-series – KPro, K-Manager, FuelTech
- Port-injected K20 and K24 only.
- This section covers the older Honda and Acura cars, the 2012–2015 Civic Si and ILX 2.4, and K-swapped chassis.
- The turbo Civic is the other section on this page.
What this section covers
| Car | Engine | Software | File you send |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2006–2011 Civic Si | K20Z3 | Hondata FlashPro | .fpcal and .fpdl or CSV |
| 2002–2005 Civic Si / SiR (EP3) | K20A3 | KPro / K-Manager | .kal and .kdl |
| 2002–2006 Acura RSX, including Type-S | K20A2, K20A3 or K20Z1 | KPro / K-Manager | .kal and .kdl |
| 2004–2014 Acura TSX | K24A2 or K24Z3 | FlashPro, with an ECU and adapter conversion on 2004–2006 | .fpcal and .fpdl or CSV |
| 2003–2007 Accord 2.4 | K24A4 or K24A8 | FlashPro on a supported ECU; a KPro setup needs a cable-throttle conversion | .fpcal and .fpdl or CSV, or .kal and .kdl |
| 2003–2011 Element | K24A4 or K24A8 | FlashPro on a supported ECU; a KPro setup needs a cable-throttle conversion | .fpcal and .fpdl or CSV, or .kal and .kdl |
| 2002–2011 CR-V | K24A1 or K24Z1 | FlashPro on a supported ECU; a KPro setup needs a cable-throttle conversion | .fpcal and .fpdl or CSV, or .kal and .kdl |
| 2012–2015 Civic Si | K24Z7 | Hondata FlashPro | .fpcal and .fpdl or CSV |
| 2013–2015 Acura ILX 2.4 | K24Z7 | Hondata FlashPro | .fpcal and .fpdl or CSV |
| K-swapped EG, EK, DC2, DC4 and other chassis (choose K-swapped chassis) | K20 or K24 | KPro / K-Manager or FuelTech; a DBW swap can stay on FlashPro | .kal and .kdl, .ftm and .ftml, or .fpcal and .fpdl |
- K swap note. A cable-throttle K swap can use KPro in an eligible ECU or a FuelTech.
- A DBW K swap that keeps its stock ECU and throttle can stay on FlashPro.
- FT450 and KPro do not drive the throttle motor; FuelTech’s native throttle control in this set is FT550 or FT600.
- Confirm the crank and cam wheels, the loom pairing and the speed interface before you buy.
- For a K-swapped chassis, choose K-swapped chassis on the order form and enter the chassis year.
- The chassis year does not have to be 2002–2015; the port-injected K20/K24 engine and ECU still decide coverage.
Software and file types
- Hondata KPro / K-Manager. Send the
.kalcalibration and one.kdllog. KManager is the software; KPro is the ECU board. - Hondata FlashPro. Some port-injected K-series cars use FlashPro. Send the
.fpcaland one.fpdllog or a CSV export. - FuelTech FT450, FT550 and FT600. Send the
.ftmmap and the native.ftmllog, plus a CSV export with the channel names and units kept.

Software and file types

.fpcalcalibration and one.fpdllog or a CSV export. - KPro and K-Manager belong to the port-injected K-series section; their files do not apply to the direct-injection L15 or K20C.
- The factory-turbo file is organised around the Bosch torque and charge model. A K20/K24 fuel, cam or injector recipe does not transfer to it.

Questions
Honda & Acura questions
Which Honda & Acura cars are in the K-series section?
This section covers the 2006–2011 Civic Si and the 2002–2005 Civic Si / SiR. It also covers the 2002–2006 Acura RSX including Type-S and the 2004–2014 Acura TSX. The 2003–2007 Accord 2.4, 2003–2011 Element and 2002–2011 CR-V use the same K24 section. So do the 2012–2015 Civic Si, the 2013–2015 Acura ILX 2.4 and a K-swapped chassis. The ECU and file decide the section, not the badge alone.
Which cars are in the turbo section?
Turbo: 2016–2021 Civic 1.5T sedan and 2016–2020 coupe use L15B7. Sedan turbo trims are EX-T 2016–2018, EX 2019–2021, EX-L and Touring. Coupe turbo trims are EX-T 2016–2018, EX 2019–2020, EX-L and Touring. The 2017–2020 Si uses L15B7. The 2017–2021 Civic 1.5T hatchback uses L15BA. For 2022–2023, Civic EX and Touring sedan and EX-L, Sport and Sport Touring hatchback use L15B7. Civic Si uses L15CA. Civic Type R K20C1: FK8 2017–2021 and FL5 2023. All use Hondata FlashPro. 2022 Type R is outside coverage. Acura Integra 2023+ 1.5T and Type S, Accord 1.5T/2.0T, RDX and TLX: coming / ask us; not open for order yet. A 2024 or later car and a 2025+ Si that needs the CAN Bridge are outside the published forms.
Will you tune an Acura Integra, a 1.5T Accord, an RDX or a TLX?
Not in the published scope today. The turbo forms accept a Civic only. The Integra 1.5T and Type S, Accord 1.5T and 2.0T, RDX and TLX are listed as coming / ask us. Email support@tunebible.com before ordering; we will confirm whether the file and application are supported.
Can I buy a used FlashPro, or is it married to the other car?
Check the exact vehicle application and market before buying. Connect it to FlashProManager, open the FlashPro window and FlashPro tab, then expand License and Security. License VIN must show unlocked, and Security Password must be unset. A cleared password does not release a vehicle lock. Have the seller resolve either restriction before purchase.
Why does the upload fail while the sensor readings make no sense?
In one reported KPro4 case, failed uploads came with implausible MAP and intake-temperature readings. Replacing the USB cable restored uploads and sensible readings. Check the connection before changing sensor scaling. If only one sensor remains wrong after communication is stable, diagnose its wiring and calibration.
A different case is an original-generation FlashPro that cannot recognize a supported 2007–2008 TSX ECU. FlashProManager 4.7.5 fixed that recognition fault. Confirm the ECU ID and software version before treating it as an unsupported ECU.
Why does a FuelTech K show RPM but still fail to start?
RPM alone does not verify engine phase or ignition timing. Check the trigger scope, sensor assignment and timing-light reference before adding fuel. One K20Z1 had black plugs and sync errors; raising fuel pressure did not keep it running. Capture the calibration, log and trigger scope together.
