Ok, here's the deal, I' have been running my car now with my new turbo setup for about 2 weeks with a check valve and stock ECU until I got my 3 bar in the mail. Well, last night my 3 bar came in from Rocket from Hondasaver ( EXCELLENT GUY/COMPANY TO DEAL WITH!!! ) Well, back to the story. I get my 3 bar in the mail, I wire it in, hook up the Hondata and run the car. Oh my god, that's pretty much all I can say!!!! It was absolutelly amazing! It pulled so hard anf A/F was still DAMN GOOD!!! So, I was all happy and then I get up this morning and start my car (in a hurry I was late for work) so I start it up, back it out of the driveway and start down the street. and the car just isn't right... no power really, (still at part throttle) kind of sputtering a little, not missing or anything, just kind of rough, almost like it's running extremely rich. And I was wondering what you guys think it could be. Needless to say I turned around half way down the street parked my teg and took the Sol so My car is still parked again. But what do you guys think it could be? Thanks.

Later,

Try thy the guys at Import review, C-Speed or Sgt.

 

I was thinking it was cuz i didn't let it warm up and it was a little chilly out side, could that be it just that it's still on the base map and it's running a little rich plus the fact that it hasn't warmed up and different things like that? The only reason I ask is because I literally jumped in my car started it up and was rolling back as I was starting it... SO it hod NO time to warm up. Thanks for all the help.

Is your eeprom written for a setup with a 3bar map?

 

Yah my base map is for a B18B with a 550's runing a GM 3 bar and at 8.5:1 static c/r. And that is exactlly what I'm runnning so IT is pretty good. does anybody else have to let their car warm up before leaving in the morning? Thanks,

My car always runs in open loop until it warms up. it runs rich, and has a wierd idle in open loop but when it switches over to closed loop it runs smooth like stock again.

 

that is one of the most important things with a turbo car. let it warm up in the morning and cool down before you turn it off.

 

I have been running open loop since January so I always baby my engine until it is warm in mornings.
