I don't move that quick!

Though this evening I managed to do this lot!
Loosen and check all 22 of the wishbone and suspension bolts
Wire brush all the calipers ready for paintingClean the hubs up ready for painting
Remove the Cat and mark up the postion for the wideband
Remove the exhaust
Clean up the Amuse exhaust up
Under seal the front wheel arches and install the Nitrons

Phew

More tomorrow!

BTW Drivers side caster adjuster is corroded, another winter and that would have been seized. 2 years old with 10,6k miles on.
I am still astounded Honda refused to accept there is a problem here
At least I caught it before it got expensive

I had 720 rc's in mine if your going to up the boost you will probably need a 2.5 or 3bar map sensor as well so you get the right resolution on your tuning maps

Also I'd be very sceptical about diving in with a 3mm head gasket, cometic make a 2mm one which seals better and is less likely to cause squish or leak!

Are you using a clamp device to fool the MAP sensor? I was't aware the std MAP could read + pressure or much of it without spazzing out?!

Well... I think the AEM's are not as fussy as the std ECU

Yup, 750cc's and I do have another 3.5 bar MAP sensor, but that's only for my wideband.

I think the stock MAP sensor can read about 1 bar positive.

The AEM has taken care off all the little issues with Apexi gear, map clamps etc.

MAP is min 0.32v = -13.9 psi, and max MAP is 4.84v = 10.9 psi and its linear.
