Default How do i tune it???????

I just broke three pistons last weekend and its because it was running too rich and flooded the motor and cleaned the oil off the cylinders then seased up and broke theree pistons. How do i get the fuel right? I have an inline fuel pump 12:1 fmu and missing link. I dont want to spend the money on hondata. The shop that put my turbo kit in said that i should put a different disk like a 10:1 or 8:1 disk in the fmu. They said that because i was running 11 psi with the 12:1 fmu it was getting too much fuel. Can i get by with an afc, or what do you recomend that i should do? I want to be able to run 14psi at the track on race gas. Now im using stock rods with arp rod bolts and srp 8.5:1 pistons on my b18b1. Should i be able to run 14 psi? and what kind of hp should it put down at that psi?

Running anything over 6-7 psi with an fmu isnt the brightest thing to do. Just spend the few extra dollars on hondata so you won't have to replace your pistons again. In the end, its cheaper.

wow, 11psi w/ 12:1 fmu and stock injectors...thats sounds like a good idea . If you dont wanna go with hondata or any other ems do the afc hack w/ 440s. YOur not gonna be able to push 14psi with your stock map unless you get some checkvalves or missing link.

btw, y would you put pistons in and not rods...also y such a low compressioN??
