Default Question about lean burn on 02"civic EX

I have a friend whose wanting to install a turbo on a 2002 civic ex. But he keeps hearing and being told about some type of condition they suffer from called lean burn. Is this just a new term that is something else or is it some thing totally different. I think they have a returnless fuel system and this may be part of it but I'm trying to help him find out. Does any body have any info n this subject?

No it's not true. There is no problem with lean burn on the em2. Just get an emenage and larger RSX-s injectors. I would suggest upgrading to the SLP return conversion. It will allow you to get the most from the emenage and injectors and allow for better mpg and fine tunning. I will def. be upgrading to it soon. My A/F ratio is a stead 11:1 so no problems running lean. Just hit me up on the IM if you guys need anyhelp.
