Well I finally installed my home made kit and it spools up fine and then starts bogging at about 6-7k. While I was tightening the manifold the actuator got kinda dented by the front driver side mount on my y7. Could this be the problem? Its's a pretty simple setup with a wrx turbo and hf mani and dsm smic. I haven't put on my vortech 12:1 fmu. Any ideas? I know it's kinda broad but anything would help.

 

plug gap too big? running too righ? any smoke?

 

wtf, you havent added any fuel management and your trying to boost?

Say bye bye to that motor if you keep it up.

 

well if you didnt get yur fmu hooked up what is supplying your fuel in boost? There could lye the problem

 

No smoke no nothing. Yeah yeah I know about the goodbye engine. Being that the actuator is kinda crushed wouldn't that also stop it from building boost?

 

got a fuel pump yet?

 

Got one just have to install it. It's an airtronix. My own procrastination with be my engine's demise! So the dented in actuator wouldn't cause anything. I can barely open the wastegate after it happened.

 

got a pic? how bad is the dent?

 

Well I installed my vortech fmu and she's running like a top! This the fuel pump will go in for some back up. Also I don't feel like running the dsm 450 and running a resistor box. Are there any other stock honda injectors that don't require the resistor box and more than stock 240 injectors? Maybe Prelude' h22's?
