You need to use some sort of gasket maker to create a nice seal between the pan and the block. When dealing with oil related things take your time and think it out, I'm sure you don't want to buy another d17 because you forgot to use gasket maker.

It would probably be a good idea for you to replace the gasket seing as how they are relatively inexpensive and seal it really well with Honda bond or something similar.

The Profec is working much better now thanks to your tuning suggestions. It is a very stable unit and I am glad that I purchased it. If anybody needs help with settings talk to Quiksilver09!!!!
