someone else said that too. UK cars dont have the metal across the front like US cars and thats the only way we could get it to fit, will it effect it at all?

The PA is no biggie, Hdata lets you disable it.
Injector test circuit will deff. slow your roll though. Uberdata can disable, but I'm pretty sure Hdata cannot. (Im not %100 on that, but pretty sure).
If your heart is set on Hdata, and you cannot disable the injector test circuit, Id try to source a USDM ecu.

Ive never had the chance to run into a inject test circuit problem with mine, but a flashing led on the blue box can indicate: ECU to Bluebox connection error. Loose socket. Wrong .bin loaded for the ECU in question.
I have however loaded up Uberdata on a JDM ECU, and until I disabled the injector test, I got key-on solid cell.

Good luck.

Just went for a test run, got no engine check lights
So at one point you were able to drive it on the Hdata w/no blinking light on the blue-box? If so, Id take your eeprom out and ever so lightly bend the legs apart, so that when you put it back in, there is pressure being applied to socket. Is this a wipe socket or a machine socket? Dual wipes blow.

HELP! Its running so rich the plugs went black and it wouldnt start at all. We took the FMU out all together and cleaned the plugs and its still running really rich. I can't even drive it to get the exhaust fitted. What can I do? Or will I have to wait until i get a new basemap for the Hondata?

plz someone help me!

Hmmm, stock injectors right? You could just plug in your stock ECU. (cut J1 jumper to return the ecu to stock if needed). Your car 'should' run if your on the stock injectors/ecu/regulator. Just no boost for you... :P

Do you have access to a chip burner?
