RC 370's or DSM 450's (what would you choose at 9 psi)
Currently I'm running the VAFC hack with the RC 370's at 9 PSI untuned on a B16. I have my trim set at about -29. It doesn't seem like I'm getting any detonation but I'm not completely sure. Would you guys swap the 370's for the 450's or should the 370's be good enough??

i dont see how its possible to trim -29 on 370's and NOT detonate! thats like running 260cc injectors, which isnt even stock size. at 9 psi, you should be requiring 450's with some trim.

I would run the DSM 450's. The VAFC should have enough leighway should you have to lean them out. Do not turn the fuel pressure down to compensate though as the combustion will not attomize nearly as well. Stock pressure is good and I don't think you will have a problem. Look into Hondata very soon if daily driven.

Ok, I guess I'm gonna swap in the 450's. I just heard that there was a lot of problems associated with the DSM 450's and when I bought the RC's they didn't have the 440's in stock.
