Running full AFC hack now, my experience
Just installed me rc440's today without problems really, the install went perfect short of fuel all over the place (no smoking buy the car... friends can be stupid sometimes). Car even started fine the first time I cranked her..... only problem I have is a CEL code 13 for BARO sensor in the ecu..... dunno why really guess it has to do with the AFC or something I couldn't tell you. I do know the BARO sensor is in the ecu on my car but I know my ecu isen't bad cause I've never had this problem prior to today.
Anyway I first started by ripping out the FMU and inline pump (will be for sale as soon as I get picks up), then moved onto the fuel rail and took off the FPR (replace with aem fpr) and fuel rail and took out each injectr, put a little oil on the O rings on the new injectors the side facing the fuel rail... put the grommets in the IM and plugged everything back up.
I must say (I'm running stock timing btw 93 octane 7lbs of boost) the car runs MUCH better off boost, and transition into boost is not even noticable, even when the car shifts now it doesn't bog one bit, pull back just keeps shooting forward, I love it..
Anyone think I should knock down below stock timing at 7lbs 93 octane? Cause I know the AFC adds crazy timing under boost from searching here, a whole discussion on that, and I have no BTM at the moment.

Re: Running full AFC hack now, my experience (shadowdawn)
I thought BARO sensor had something to do with MAP sensor becuase when I tried an 91 LS ECU on my CRX way back, got the same code and when looked up the code it said something about MAP.
How much for the pump? How's $65 shipped?
