db- yeah, I've driven it. It's just that the tuning is so far out of whack that there is a lot more work to be done before it's finished.
TAAXED - She is a lot more insane now. We were boosting 6psi a that time. We'll be boosting 16-20 now.

LOL, welcome to the real world Honda dealers.
When my car went in for it's 10K service they reported that everything was great but I needed a new short block.
Apparently some early castings were porous and a stain develops on the side of the block from coolant leaking through the aluminium.
So they replaced my short block under warranty and did all the RTA things so my new engine number was on record.
Next time I went in for service at a different dealer I was asked why my engine number was different.
