I'll have a look when i have the time.
In the meantime, where do u live, do u have a wideband or narrowband?
And its impossible to tune the hondata perfectly without air fuel measurement.
Even if u adapt the kal, then the cam angles are not optimal either.

The car will run, but too lean or rich, and you wont have max hp.

i live in mid-west area, but i only drive anything but winter seasons. im just using my stock 02 sensors (secondary is hooked to a 02 non-fouler bong) as of now. what are the benefits of a wideband?

U can measure your airfuel at all time, if you put a meter to it, u can even see it in your car.
By this you can tune your map yourself and see if the airfuel is getting better.
Or u can use your datalogs then and check the values in hondata that it measures.
With a narrowband you cannot see the values.

But i believe the RSX has a wideband standard.

yes, i believe the 05-06 are the ones who have to worry about the wideband

Yes ofcourse, the intake valves remain open longer which result in more oxygen, so you have to compensate with more fuel.

This is impossible to predict how to compensate unless you log with the wideband or go to a tuner.
Can you make a log driving around in vtec then i can check it, but im not a pro in that.
Perhaps its better u ask someone who does etuning here.
