Don't hurt me just yet, but maybe you did mess up an injector or two while swapping manifolds. If you did it yourself and it was your first time, it could be a possibility.

I know I did..

LOL, well this sure aint my first rodeo my friend. Been doing this Honda thing for over a decade. But even old timers can still have one of those "**** happens" moments.

The injectors were all installed properly, all o-rings were replaced with brand new ones from the dealer.

I've got a buddy with a boosted 05-S, he thankfully held on to his stock injectors so we are going to swap those in tomorrow morning and see if that relieves the issue.

Yes... The factory IM has a port that the MAP sensor gets its reading from but the Skunk2 doesn't. Lack of attention to detail basically, the MAP wasn't getting any reading from the manifold. I used a dremel to make a small channel on the throttle body and it worked like a champ. A couple days later I got the bad *** Skunk2 74mm TB I ordered.

Hi. I know this is a old post but i have the same issue that you had, when cold the revs bog at idle when i press the throttle but after the car runs for a min or so its perfectly fine. I have a jap DC5 Type r and i have just fitted a skunk2 pro with the stock TB.. When you say you cut a small channel on the TB where did you make the cut? Any pics or a diagram would be amazing.

Thank you in advance.
