    Radiator and Lip came in today. After the tune, I'll be spending some time sanding my accord rear lip and then painting both lips (front and rear). Also Going to mount my wink mirror and work out where to put my boost controller.

    I got a great deal with the Emanage, and it has a couple features that I like. a friend of mine is using it on his 1200awhp Dodge Stealth, So I figured if it's good enough for that, It's good enough for my +/- 300whp honda. lol.

    Need some help. It cranks and idles pretty good. But I tap the throttle and it floods out. If I very slowly push the throttle it will rev up and A/F Ratio goes to 10.0 (AEM Wideband). Put it in gear, try to drive, it floods out and stalls.

    As of right now, Im using the stock injectors because the 550's were too big without a tune.

    Any ideas? Possibly need a missing link on MAP sensor?

    No code. Missing link was my only guess before I realized im tuning off NOTHING right now, lol.

    On start up, AFR is at 17.5 then every second (I assume that's how often the ecu gets a signal from...something) it will tick down .1 (17.5,17.4,17.3....) So I really think its the abundance of mods with the lack of management.

    Towing to Batlground as soon as tag and insurance are solid.

    in the glove box. lol. 202/189 @ 6.5psi. When I get around a scanner (next week) I'll post it up.

    Found out my boost gauge is reading approx 10psi less than boost reading at the ecu. I ran "12psi" daily (1.5 hrs to georgia state, 5 days a week) for 2 years. So, somewhere around 22psi? That's why Tdurr refers to the old f22a as a "freak motor". And that would explain the huge drop in power from the last setup to this one.

    Next motor phase is in the works. A couple things to change up and attempt. Not only am I new to internal work, but this motor is fairly unexplored. So it should be interesting to see what happens. Here's the plan:

    -F20B VTEC head
    -H22 intake manifold (skunk2 or euro R)
    -H22 Ram horn turbo Manifold
    -ARP head studs
    -Bisimoto Head gasket
    -Wire up vtec
    -retune
    -12 psi

    Should make 300+

    lol, I made 347/313 on a stock f22 @ 22psi. I'm just shooting low for now, if im surprised, sweet! If not, oh well.

    Gotta figure out the head gasket issue for the f20b head swap.
