Your oil smelling like gas is because its probably running crazy rich--FMU,bigger injectors and retarded timing = pig rich

 

you posted this in the civic forum as well.

you also mentioned that you had the same setup on your last motor the lasted a day and you blew the motor

ill post the same thing here
----

and you put the same fuel mangement on the 2nd motor.
learn from your mistakes and get rid of the FMU.

list a little more detail about your setup

what size turbo?
how much boost?
what size injectors?
what kind and size FMU?

platinum.

 

also still running the stock mid section would that have anything to do with it? 1 3/4id down pipe is 2 1/2 id

No, your half-assed fuel management is the problem.

Get something tunable, some larger injectors, and some dyno tuning done and that will most likely fix your problem.

 

so as far as tuning what would you reccomend safc, obd1 conversion w/hondata or similar? because i would like to stay obd2 because of emmisions its a daily drive ...would i still pass if i went obd1

 

also my friend is running the same setup but doesnt have any problems...only difference is the turbo and the manifold he is running t3 with log mani mines tubular and tdo4h

 

Keep the OBD2 stuff around so that when emissions tests come around, you can put that on. I recommend a chipped ECU running your choice of engine management: Hondata, Crome, Uberdata, etc.
