This weekend I played around with giving myself a rough tune - the injection feature works surprisingly well (so does the timing - I had it retarded too much, causing bogging, rough idle, and LOTS of carbon!).....But its fixed for now, until they have a chance to look at it.
Oh yeah, the wastegate.....I'm hoping this doesn't give me any issues, when it opens it makes a rather loud "rat-a-tat-tat" sound - there were a few posts on Honda Tech about other users having this issue as well, so I'm hoping its just normal......

I'm worried about clamps blowing off, or the IAT blowing out tho....crossing my fingers that none of that happens.
As far as the settings - we'll see what happens...

Well guys - just got back from dyno tuning the BEAST - Darren at Titan Motorsports did an AWESOME FVCKING JOB!
The first run was a baseline run, at 5 PSI. Amazingly, with a rough tune I made 150 HP, and 150 Ft/lbs of torque.
After a lot of tuning - we cranked up the boost controller (which held rock solid where it was set - no creep what-so-ever) to around 11 PSI.
Let me just say now, the numbers that the D17 put out were simply amazing! I don't plan on running 11 PSI daily however(10 at most at the track - don't want to blow the motor / head gasket). The results?
221 HP and 207 ft/lbs of torque!
Pretty damn impressive for a torqueless wonder....
Here are the dyno charts:
Baseline
11 PSI
Maybe if the weather is nice here - I'll take it to the track on Wednesday and see what she'll do in the 1/4 mile......
BTW Dezod, I didn't have any problems with fuel at all....Maybe you should turn your FPR up a bit. Mine is set to 47 PSI at idle....

-T3-60 trim turbo
As of now, the reason the #'s are good is because I don't have a cat installed - I have a magnaflow high flow cat that I want to get installed, but need to find someone who will do it - as its illegal. Don't know how much I'll lose when I install it, but don't really want to fvck up the environment too much either.....
