so im pretty sure im running pretty rich. i have a JR supercharger and i know i still need to get the car tuned and its just running stock psi like 6 or 7. but is there any way i can take care of this without having to buy hondata and getting it tuned on a dyno? everytime i start off in first i have to give it quite a bit more gas than normal or else it dies on me.

the closest dyno to me is like 5 or 6 hrs away

You have several options.

You can go the Hondata route, the Crome Pro route (costs $150), or the freeware Crome/Uberdata route. There are others out there, but these are the main ones.

You can do a street tune with a wideband o2 sensor instead of dyno tuning, but the best (and most expensive) option would be to do both.

Just remember that the quality of the tune is critical in a forced induction application.

Hondata is an external module that integrates with your ECU. Crome is a computer program that allows you to create EPROMs. You have to solder a socket into your ECU, and the EPROM goes in there.

I would suggest Crome Pro over Hondata myself.
