But you are running an Apexi AFC,so youare controling AFR in an unusual way. He is trying for stock functionality. This eBay item does not appear to have the downstream O2, or the heat cover for the catalyst. Seems dodgy to me. Just get the stock equipment, unless you wanna figure it out.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
