Default TUNNING HELP

I have a 93 civic cx with a jspec d15b its basically a d16z6. It has a ihi turbo 7 pounds dsm intercooler dsm 380 injectors 3 check valves dsm bov a small fmu not sure of the rate something like 6:1 and a vafc. the problem im haveing is after I boost when I come to a stop it wants to die I have correction set at like -20 and it increases about 2 every 1000 rpms and some times I have real rough transitions between vacum and boost it wants to bog for a couple seconds. Any advice would help thanks.

yeah it help what I did though was get a adjustable fuel pressure regulater cranked it up to 68 pounds to make sure I had good pressure under boost and turned the vafc down even more its at almost -35 to -30 it still ideals a bit rough but there is no bog at all anymore and the egt seems to stay ok ideal its at 6 boost its at 13/14 I have to get it dyno tunned to know for sure though.

Why don't you just go with the VAFC hack? Your car will be running a little better, but you won't need any check valves nor FMU. Still, if you don't want the rough starts, or the car trying to die on you, you need a better fuel management system such as the HONDATA.

all you need is the vafc and the injectors, no fuel pressure change, no check valves, and no fmu
