I have a 97 Civic LX with a greddy turbo kit running 7 psi. Driving home from School today, I noticed a little hesitation at a low constant rpm. It sounds like my Stock exhaust pipe popping im my DTM! (like when I come off throttle) . I just went to my friends house and now it is "BOGGING" at any constant rpm and aliitle while accelorationg slowly. I just changed my Fuel filter 3000 miles ago, I have MSD wires, I just changed the cap and rotor not more than 24 hours ago, the plugs are 3000 miles old. Using a 1 level colder Bosch Platnium plug then stock. Any other suggestions for plugs? Back to the Major problem, My motor has 97,000 miles, 5,000 with boost and still mostly origanal from the factory(water pump, oil pump, fuel pump, etc)
Anyone that likes to help another honda junkie, always get good karma! If this helps, I beleive it is the fuel pump or Regulator but I also realize that it could also possibly be my ECM. (I hope not, at least for now). So if anybody could point me in a direction, Thank You!
And please hurry, I need to fix it befor it strands me somewhere. I am still planning on driving it to work tomarrow unless you all tell me different.

 

you may wanna look into pumping more fuel into it, perhaps with an aftermarket fuel pump or even injectors. you're forcing more air into the engine, you want more fuel than stock as well. although you're only running 7psi which should be fine with stock injectors. i'm having the same problem with my blown lude but i think i know what the problem is.

which fuel management do you use? the blue box came with greddy kit or something else? I have a friend used to use 12:1 FMU and fuel pump on his greddy kit and had the same problem just like you. Now, he plug-in the blue box problem is gone.
BTW, I am in "Melboring", too.
