I've not seen anything similar for Pilots.
Probably won't since the average Pilot owner doesn't want anymore speed, but there is a chance some things might show since now the TL TypeS and the Accord have the 3.5L engines too. They probably won't be Pilot specific, but maybe they could be modified a little to fit. One can only hope though.

You can do a stage one chip for a stock Pilot :2:

Performance Chip

Dont waste your money on intakes, not much HP to be gained there. Usually the factory air box is decent and a paper filter protects better. No oil in the throttle body as a benefit also.

Exhaust systems are a good way to gain power, then you can get a Stage 2 Chip
Interesting. I never expected anyone to make a chip for the Pilot. They claim they actually dyno the vehicle before and after to get the best tune. It's too bad they don't have the dyno sheets available to see BEFORE you purchase. No way would I fork over $225 without knowing what I am getting in return.

I wonder if it would have any effect on the MM.

I am doing one on my NSX and expect to achieve an additional 10-14 HP gain from the chip alone, but the torque curve is where the best gains are. This is with headers and cat back exhaust. Without the headers and exhaust I can imagine getting somewhere between 6-10 HP...probably not worthwhile.

Eventually I am going to do a catback on my Pilot and maybe then I'll try a chip.
Let us know how the process went with your NSX, shipping your computer out, how long to get back, and finally some dyno results.

Are you going to dyno before you get the chip installed?
