Get K-poop, and then ignore Doug's LIES regarding what to do with the fuel system. You want to convert the fuel system to a return style with external FPR - the intank FPR, despite Doug's LIES, is incapable of holding pressure when any real flow is taking place. Past ~8 psi with inefficient old 60-1 compressor caused fuel pressure to drop clean away on a number of Walbro 255 HPs.

I doubt the K-series injector spacing is the same as B-series. I'd dearly love to say yes, but your answer is probably a big fat HELL NO.

The aftermarket K-series rails just have a plug in one end and you have to run an external-to-the-rail FPR which can be a few $$. I suggest haunting domestic forums for deals on used stuffs. It's a shame the aftermarket K-stuff don't have the earlier OBD0-2B Honduh FPR provision... although maybe your could drill + tap a rail to fit one. Cheap and effective.

Cybercrapnation's badly fabricated joke of a kit that needs every "bolt together" piece of it kicked or tweaked or fabricated on from charge pipe to downpipe to re-surfacing the manifold flanges because they are warped... ah... also comes with a nifty piece of blue anodized aluminum pipe that you plumb as your fuel return into the cas tank.

Oh, BTW, in case you haven't heard Cybernation sucks.

another alternative would be a Greddy e manage. Its not as good as Hondata but it does the job well at a lower price

And you tune it how?

K-poop lets you use the factory wideband - $300 less you have to spend.

I do think K-poop is a bit picey yet, but not as pricey as the initial sticker shock makes you feel. There are a number of features they have that sweetens the pot.

Personally? If I laid hands onto an el-cheapo K-series, I'd lock the intake cam at zero since that's pretty much where it's at under boost, and use something cheaper than K-poop.
