Yes,you need a tune for sure, your on some sort of basemap I'm guessing which are supposed to be rich so detonation doesn't occur, or you have a fuel leak somewhere.

Stop reading these posts and call a tuner. That's where your problem is. Your stock ecu asks the stock injectors to open up a certain amount at different voltages. When you put bigger injectors in that certain amount of voltage allows for a LOT more fuel to be delivered. You're running pig rich.

Also was your CEL on before turbocharging the car? If it was, find out what it is and fix it. Then go to the tuner.

OP, you have a lot of reading and learning in your future if you want to keep your car running correctly.

Some threads should be locked and some should just be deleted.

The router interface 98.158.194.248 to the honda-tech server hard drive storage has just received packets of retarded information because of this thread. OP please ban yourself from speaking do to the lack of common sense coming from your keyboard. I should access your computer and replace all of your key strokes so that something intelligent is typed instead of this nonsense.

It's because you aren't running enough boost for the fuel. Don't be a *****, turn up the wick.

Well the fact that you have a turbo on, untuned, and have CEL's that you neglect to fix really doesn't make you sound like you know much lol. Everyone is just saying get that thing tuned because how the hell is your stock ecu supposed to compensate for the extra air molecules. Just keep this in mind. It only takes mere seconds (around 2-3 seconds) to blow the engine up. happy boosting :D

Okay well take that turbo off and wait til you have funds. You will have to get funds for a new motor if you dont...Even if you had a wideband you still wouldnt be tuned for timing tables...which causes a lot of damage
