As for the enrichments, i was having alot of problems with noise in the wiring, that is why i have a brand new 12' foot diyautotune wiring harness with all new connectors. I have a few other plans, including new fuel pump and new regulator running atleast a 3 bar reg. And it is just richening up at the high end which i knew about but couldnt change as my friend had borrowed my tuning cable and i dont run the car that hard very often.
You would most likely be better off with the stock harness unless its beyond repair. What you're attributing to noise is more likely be due to improper settings in Megatune or bad grounds. The stock loom is very well shielded where needed. I do just fine with the stock wiring.
Notice how it seems to be dropping a fixed percentage of your PW? That says "its in your settings". I dont see any significant noise in the RPM, MAP or coolant/air temp readings.

Wow, I haven't seen this thread in a while. A quick update which isn't very exciting - the car is running well at 12psi and has been since this thread was updated. It's crazy to think that the last post in this thread was 2010. Time flies when you are having fun.

I want to say my feed line is 36" +/- a couple of inches. My return line has a flexible teflon lines stainless line that is about 8" long with a couple of inches of stainless tubing connected by Swagelok fittings. Hope that helps.

I did finally put the clutch in last summer. It has been great. Pedal feel is basically like stock and engagement isn't touchy at all. All in all I would highly recommend that clutch for anyone wanting great driveability with good holding power.

Wish I could see all the pics. Use Flikr instead it lets you post third party pics without paying.

Hey guys, I will try to update all the pics. Life and work have been crazy and haven't had a lot of time to post. I got images rehosted but have to update all the links which will take a bit of time. Hope everyone is doing well.

Still kickin'! Just had a lot on my plate with new work responsibilities and the kids growing up with things like sports and other school commitments.
And to dispel any rumors, I haven't stopped tuning cars and definitely don't drive a '14 accord. Lol.

Hello All; I have a 1986 m30b34 turbo 635 and I have a rusted 1989 635 with a m30b35 engine, so what I have understood is that the head off the b35 may or may not add to my HP addition.
I wish to swap the heads and put my turbo cam in the b35 and hope Bob is your uncle.
I am open for any points of view pro or con if you can be so kind.
Thanks;
Brian
