yoir gas mileage will go down and your peformance will decrease, too much fuel is a bad thing for making power and your definitely gonna be feeling a crazy drop in power out of boost and just driving around cause your drowning your shit in fuel.......

an fmu is not gonna control your injectors , it only controls fuel pressure when your in boost, you need to get at the least a vafc and take some fuel out of them injectors.........

a vafc is basically a safc with a vtec contoller. if you got some cash hondata would be a much better option. you can see if your ecu is compatible by going here. if you can, get the s200b and go find a good tuner.
