And you tune it how?

K-poop lets you use the factory wideband - $300 less you have to spend.
rsx doesn't have a wideband o2 sensor. k poop is pre programmed but you still need to tune it if your're going custom

Maybe if you live outside of the USDM... I know euro EP3 doesn't have a primary wideband sensor, but the USDM RSX and Type-S do.

One of my buddies bought a Cybernations kit for his RSX and has been running it off of some sort of piggyback fuel controller they created called the "Guardian". I guess somehow it pre tunes itself and Cybernations can reprogram it for you or download your datalogs at anytime to determine if theres any problems. I don't know if it's something they offer seprate from their kits but it seems like it's doing the job. Wish I could hook my wideband up to it and actually see what it's doing

Cybernation runs a thoroughly adulterated AFC hack partially hidden by their "black magic" controller which is just a voltage divider to make it seem like the AFC isn't set to large negative deflection (-30% to -40%). The Guardian is YET ANOTHER piggyback interfering and molesting it's way around, which I haven't had the spiteful glee of reverse engineering yet (I wonder if they pour the Guardian's enclosure full of metal epoxy so I have to chisel the thing apart like the 'Lack Magic).

And their customer service is nonexistant.

RSX has what is called a semi-wideband O2S. it reads from 11.48:1(rich)-32.68:1(lean). not a true wideband O2S which would read from 9.0:1-32.xx:1.

11.48 isn't low enough to use as a proper diagnostic tool in common troubleshooting.

11.48 isn't low enough when stroking knock limit on pump gas.
