K100, Kpro is useless unless your going to tune the car yourself.

K100 requires that you go to a dealer for tuning. K-pro you can tune yourself. HENCE the datalogging option for k-pro..
if you want to tune it ONCE and then leave it. for example, if someone wanted to do intake/header/exhaust and stock engine, k100 works just fine. OR if you dont have the know-how to tune your own car... why would you buy kpro???
hands down k-pro is still by far the winner here.
what i said in my previous post was accurate...

at double the price K-pro is only worth it if your planning on continually modifying and re-tuning your car yourself. 90% of people will do I/H/E right when they first get the swap done and then have it tuned and leave it. There really is no reason to go with K-pro unless you or a close friend are going to be tuning the car yourself which will cost you in essence nothing, otherwise you will have to pay a tuner each time you retune which just adds onto the already high cost of K-pro.
