Which means Hondata will have a monopoly on current and future ECU tuning for Hondas which means prices will go up, and thats bad for us.
lol you're acting like laws will stop anyone. How many people spray nitrous on the street every weekend? How can they stop an idea like open source? When wierdos can get access to child porn on the internet, do you really think that any force can stop the spread of open source? No way.

Sucks for the guy caught in the middle though (owner of the site)... just a regular person..

But yeah it might hinder the sales of the stuff EVER SO SLIGHTLY.... but trust me it won't stop or even affect the usage. Especially something like crome, which is almost pure DIY. Even posting up crome maps and setups, big brother cant stop any of that.

Yeah this kids in a pickle, sucks for him. I feel bad, i'm going to throw in some and post it around..


OH YEAH GUYS THERES ALWAYS MEGASQUIRT

LOLOLOL BLAHAHAHAHAHAH FTL
