The timing prob can be fixed with a msd btm fairly easily

AFC works pretty darned good. But i've heard of CEL (check engine light) problems w/ them and obd2 setups. Some have done it no problem, some can't get the cel to stay away.

Your best bet is to go uberdata. Basically get a obd1 p28 (92-95 civic si/ex) ECU and chip it. You end up w/ a REALLY low cost Hondata. not as pretty w/ the blue box and such, but just as funtional.

hell. by sellin the AFC, FMU, and all that other crap, it will almost pay for the uberdata costs. (burner, chips, chipping etc). I'd say the only major cost in chippin the ecu w/ a custom tune is the actual tuning. but worth it if u want a smooth running reliable motor.
