New AEM FIC . . . thoughts?

I forget if it was mentioned in your other thread but are you running a thicker headgasket or stock compression? I’m not sure how the black box deals with timing (perhaps retards according to boost or tps or some combination) but stock honda maps tend to get pretty aggressive with timing under partial throttle conditions (especially if backing out of the throttle and then rolling back in). I have a good example of too much partial/full throttle timing in a comptech boosted S2K sitting in my garage right now (nice hole melted through piston 1 and initial melting on piston 2).
