Got my car dynoed this weekend.
Yeah, I remember liking it, ran really well for an engine that's supposed to be old and used up when you find them these days.
I've got an order in with Digikey for more chips. I should be able to get you a modified chip out with a little more fuel where you are running lean. 12.5:1 won't hurt anything buy itself at your power level, but you have no safety margin and if you go momentarily lean *tink* ringland fuckage. Sound like something that's happened to you?
Josh pointed out to me that factory fuel rail starves cyls 1 + 2 by a couple percent pressure - especially #1 right at the end of the rail. I'm guessing that's why #1 went instead of #3 which is normally the hottest running cyl. Right now the lower compression in #1 will keep it from drawing in as much air and should keep #1 safe, but if the rings start to seat a bit better that margin of safety goes away.

hmm. Well, I've got it down at 7psi for now. I only did a 12psi pull once since the dyno. When I get to do some testing on the wg (use petes), then I'll do a coupl e12psi pulls but right now 7-8 psi feels great. I forgot how fast a boosted honda was. When I get some more money, I'll look into a rail. My stock fpr should keep the pressures at 38psi at idle even with the larger rail, right? I'm broke as hell right now. I really couldnt afford to dyno, but I was dying to do it.
