get rid of the missing link, fmu and inline pump...buy a walbro 255lph intank pump, and get a adj. FPR (aeromotive, aem, ect.)

what makes you want to go with the power FC? do you have a local tuner that is familar with it or someting?

No my friend at all , i live in a small country named MALTA in the middle of europe, and i m just guessing to buy a power fc. Because they say it is an easy e/m to tune up. I am very short on honda tuners back here, and i don t now exactly what shall i buy and to whom i shall give it for a tune up. As i am very fed up of listening that these bloody ford cosworths are the best engines ever made in history. That s what a lot of people say in malta. So i need more boost than the original 6.5 psi that i am giving to my car. If you will see my post you will see what kind of set up i have. Any Ideas? Thanks a lot in return for your help.

if i were you i would go around to the tuning shops in your area and see what they are familiar with. even if they dont have much tuning experience specifically with hondas, if they know the software then they should be able to do a good job.

If you got the power fc you would be changing out your factory e/m regardless.

the power fc use the stock sensors, so no need to change them, you can change the map seneor if you are going over 14 psi, you can just sell the fmu, missing link, and inline pump, and all you would need to buy is the walbro 255 intank fuel pump. for fuel adjustments, you can buy the fc commander which is like a $385 option to the $980 power fc sticker price. in the fuel map table the values are in 100s 100 = 14.51 a/f ratio so if you want a 12.00 a/f ration, just divide 14.52/12.00 = 1.214 so you would put 121 in the cells where you want that a/f ratio.

Thanks a lot my friend for answering my question . I appreciate it a lot for this type of info you gave me. Because in my country there are not such people that can help me in these things.
May i ask you another question do you use a power FC or not? and how do you find it if yes?

I don't have it right now, got rid of it, when I got rid of my 00si, but, I'm getting it again for my 91 civic. you can get it from alot of places, you can review the instructions for tuning here http://www.spipowerexcel.com/p...s.pdf and get it from any power excel shop, or even here http://godspeed.hack.net/apexi.html

On a side note, judging by your signature, you should be able to show those cosworths a thing or two
