Honestly... I would upgrade your injector control and stop screwing around with fuel pressure hacks. You just can't know hat the injectors are cycling at, or how much they are flowing really. You know, the biggest mistake most hot rodders made in the 60s and 70s was putting like 750 and 850 cfm carbs on their little 302 and 350 motors. I see this as being the same thing... you are overfueling it. IMO you have 3 options - either return the "stock" parts that came in the kit and set it to the "stock" settings, go to a dyno and have someone meter the thing and tune it, OR upgrade to a real injector controller and then tune it. I'm afraid I've come to a point where any more of my advice could do more harm then good... I've never played with a FMU nor researched them, so this is where my knowledge comes to an end. Sorry Slvr-Bullet.

no prob... guys on honda-tech will know WAY more about it, but be ready to get flamed for using an FMU

D16turbo can prolly be of great assistance as well. Worse comes to worse... try calling various tech support lines for all the products you purchased over the years Someone will throw you a bone.
