Very helpful post. Thanks to all the insight that is posted here.
I may be off topic, I have a 6lb CTSC,Header,exhaust,and if it matters a 6spd trans with short gears, so I assume that it matters that I am getting in the rev range quicker than a normal trans.
My question, Comptech offers the Baschboost
ESM(Smart map) with it's kits now.(or $149) This unit gets rid of the Honda Mechanical check valve system,does it not? How much better off would the car be with this unit instead of the manual system? Would the car have a ideal A/F mixture because of this? Would the tuning of the system still need the type of aftermarket system that Steve and Ken have been discussing throughout this thread. My car too has been running rich. I have changed the O2 sensor that was giving the check engine light. I am hoping that that was causing the car to run rich. I also plan on tracking my car, and at the cost of maintenance for these cars, I do not want to hurt the car. I would rather spend the money to prevent the fire than to put it out. I am completely ignorant when it comes to these cars , read paranoid.
I want to have it running correctly.
Any advice is taken with great appreciation.
