Thanks to the local Honda dealer for hooking me up with the correct wiring diagrams and stuff..

finish the install and it took 1 1/2 hours because it was a bitch to dismantle the entire console to get to the ignition harness

What kind did you get? Apexi?

Have problems with mine not working ~5% of the time. I think I turn the car off too fast.

I got the apex-i pencil type timer..

so far it's worked 100% of the time.. don't matter if i turn it on and off really quick..

when you say it don't work 5% of the time, you mean the timer don't come on? did you do the install yourself?

Timer comes on but car turns off. Only happens in a blue moon.

Soldered mine Dont know what the heck is wrong with it. I ran the power straight to the battery. It works like a charm for O2 readings and timing just lets the car die sometimes when the timer kicks in.
