2. Do you happen to have a shot of your shifter box where it mounts to the tunnel? Insight/Accord bolt patterns are not the same.

3. I admire your readiness to tune your own car. What resources are you using as guides for this process? I'll either learn it myself or e-tune but I'm doubtful your average outsourced tuner would accept or understand the request of a tune with "lean-burn part-throttle cruise".

1. I think KPro is supposed to have logic for A/C compensation already, but it didn't work on mine. I'm still playing with, but idle is managed with ignition timing, so if you too find the built-in logic isn't working, you might try having two NOS triggers - one to activate the compressor, and another to add maybe 7 degrees of timing while the car is in the idle range, to "catch" the engine when a sudden load hits. The ECU will adjust timing by itself and stabilize RPM after a moment, just need to give it a small bit of help in the transition.

2) After work.

3) Asking questions on Facebook, reading KPro documentation, following Julian Edgar's lean burn tuning on the stock engine.
