The motor was a K24A with the 04-05 intake, Accord cable throttle body, stock header, 2.5" exhaust, RSX oil pump, and 06-08 TSX cams. I had a 50° VTC with a 40° limiting pin, but it should work fine even if you have only a 25°.

The only thing I'd caution is to listen for knock, as the tunes were very much maximizing ignition advance for each octane level - the 93 tune is essentially MBT everywhere but at WOT below ~2250rpm, where I still had to pull some advance. You can, of course, simply flash a 91 tune if you're running 93 and still getting knock on the 93 tune, but I'd be happy to help adjust the ignition tables to fix that.

There are lean burn and non-lean burn variants for each fuel grade. You'll want to tick or untick the boxes based on what sensors you have - mine was complete, with upstream and downstream O2 sensors and full emissions set up. You'll also want to adjust the transmission ratio table.

42mpg is great. I found gearing was absolutely key, and gained another 5+ mpg when I got my 3.4 final drive and 9th gen 6th installed.
Just loaded your 93 octane non lean burn tune and for some reason it doesn't work at all with my K24. The idle is really rough and lopey when cold, it refuses to idle when warm, doesn't want to restart when it dies out, and generally ran bad enough that I had to pull over and reload the base map. It seemed to possibly be running rich, I got a lot of white/grey smoke and it was somewhat hard to start when I reloaded the base map like it was flooded.

I'm still confused by why your tune wouldn't work for my engine since I have an almost identical setup. The only thing I can think of is maybe your fuel pressure was way different than mine. What fuel system do you have and what fuel pressure are you running?
