I have da w/ b16 i just swap im not a pro on swapping cars but.. i did a pretty good job.. no check engine light nothing at all. Stock headers. stock intake. stock pipping everything stock except for the suspension. but my problem is.. wen im on the freeway goin 75 my RPM is on high 5000k. is that normal? My idle is 1500k i know its idling high.. thats one reason i think.. but seems like the engine is strugling. I tried to speed up pass 85 to 90 but seems like my rpm jumps faster... i know its a noob question but feels weird... i have ckeck my timing yet or the belt. Any suggestion? vtec kicks at 4700. thanks..
What tranny are you using? could it be that your clutch is slipping! Then with your idle first check the throttle cable for being too tight if not then adjust your idle screw on the intake manifold by the throttle body Good luck

did you just do the swap? what engine did you have.... (b18a) ? VTEC engines have a second o2 which needs to be wired to your ECU along with a few other vtec related parts if you haven't already

Yup i wired that all upp second o2 sensor. knock sensor, vtec, ground.. but the thing is i dont feel no power at high end..im at 75mph goin to 85mph.. feels like its strugling.. rpm is at 5000k which is bad if i cruise around 85mph right? i mean supposed to be around 3k to 4k right?.. i use to have a 92 GSR it feels nothing like it.. i have stock piping.. stock headers could that be it?
