I doubt Hondata will have anything for an Insight. Mostly because they can only tune a processor that they can plug into and monitor.
I'd even bet the Insight has a unique processor in the ECM.
You might get them to work up the routines if you could send them an ecm or 'loan' them a complete car.

That was how I got the Flash tuner on three of my cars. Once they worked out the addressing, the style of the code and some of the design protocols, I could tune just about anyway I wanted.

I had an XCal from SCT for my GT.
I shipped them my PCM, because they had not worked with my calibration code.
Even after they send me a "custom" tune for my calibration, I took the XCal to a local dyno and "found" more torque, more peak hp and another 4.5mpg at highway speed
