im going to have to disagree to a certain degree. Ive been running an FMU for months now and dont have any problems. Of course low boost application.
I think the problem is not the FMU, its that people feel they can run a FMU with out a inline pump. A intank pump just doesnt cut it, it doesnt provide enough pressure.
But of course having hondata is better......but there is nothing wrong with running a FMU. Just my opinion.

I'd rather run low pressure I.E. big injectors & a tank pump. than have my small *** injectors barfing out fuel cuz theres 100 PSI in my fuel rail.

isnt the smc the best value solution now?
smc- 119
450's- 60
balancing- 44 (absolutely necessary?)
resistors- 0 (obd0)

total ~230.

you bring up a good point. When exactly do you guys replace brakes. I still have my stock integra brakes and ive hit trap speds above 140 mph and have no problem stopping.

My boost chip is $100 shipped, retards timing with boost, isnt a "hack", and can idle 450's like stock. So IMO, my chip is the best solution for obd1 ecu's. Of coarse tuning is harder with my chip unless ur in dallas or boston...
