Hitting Rev Limiter 3500-4000 RPM...
Hi,
I am running a mini-me (d15b7) motor turbo set-up WITH internals...
What would be causing it to hit rev limiter at 3500-4000 RPM range? I have been told it is going into LIMP MODE...
I have checked all connections on all sensors...
Another question arised, would the Comptech E.S.M. I am running not be running correctly or anything?
By the way, NO CODES ARE BEING THROWN... (CEL does work, comes on on initial start up and goes off as normal)

Re: (Dimi)
Yes I have been currently tuning the motor such as getting the timing correct...fuel pressure, etc...
However this is the only problem I am currently running into...
Someone said something about my computer having to be UPGRADED b/c the computer will see boost...
I was told the "Comptech E.S.M." was suppose to over ride that problem?
By the way this is a 1995 Civic DX, the computer I am not for sure if it is ob1 or ob2...I will check when I get back home...

I'm not entirely sure, but I'll give it a shot.
Unless the Comptech ESM is custom chipped for your application for VTEC, boost, air/fuel parameters, etc...that could be the problem. If you just hooked up te ESM and expect it to work, I don't think it will.
The P06 DX ECU is a OBD-1 since it's pre-1996.
Don't quote me on this, other's might be able to chime in.

Re: (vtec69)
I do not have V-TEC... d15b7 SOHC NON-VTEC
Comptech ESM Instructions, they are preset for honda & acuras...
http://www.comptechusa.com/instructions/ins091.pdf
You have 4 wires, wired as follows:
red- MAPP POWER
black- MAPP SENSOR GROUND
blue- GOES TO MAPP SENSOR SIGNAL
green- GOES TO MAPP SENSOR SIGNAL TO ECU
It is suppose to be pre-set for hondas/acuras....
However the instructions also say if it was wired up wrong or anything it would throw a code...I AM CURRENTLY NOT GETTING ANY CELS...that is what isn't making any sense! Would it be possible for it to throw a code if I tested for a code even tho the CEL isn't on while driving

Re: (XzCiViCzX)
Another thing that may be helpful to know is that I AM running a MSD 6AL Box with 7000 pill...took out 7000 pill to see if it was mal-functioning from factory....still hitting rev limiter at 3500-4000 RPMs...
I have reset computer, disconnected battery...still same problem???? Something isn't right!
