ok let me say everything he said....
your car is done its runnign very lean.. your cant go in the boost
your gonna pop your notor. these 1.7s have such a high bigger cycle on the injectors
we have to do a couple of things. either a super afc hacked, which is what were doing on the honda clubs. or do a proper some form of management with injectors..
1.7 are the only motors that run at 95 "duty cycle"? otherwise ther car is runnign very well you can tell theres acceleration, etc.. theres no boost guage, in here.. theres all these engine lights n ****, you got wiring in your car everywhere. this car is a fukn mess, so all of this has to eb cleaned up and its gotta come back for a couple of days once u figure out which way ur gonna go as far as your management system goes...
bye

350 plus you need a lab top or an e-01 wich will run you 450 or the profec e-01 wich is a boost controller plus controlls the emanage system wich will run you about 560 so almost almost 900 for both

95 means 95% duty cycle...

Yes you need something to up the fuel, the stock ecu won't help... Search around on here for fuel setups, there are a few...

You can use an FMU / AFC with RSX injectors in the meantime until Hondata releases the proggy.
