Seems like clutch slip (boost problem)
S2000 with t3/t4 turbo kit, Turbo smart waste gate (tested), 22x12x3 FMIC pressure tested, Greddy BOV (tested), missing link not tested, FMU not tested. The car shows 9psi on the gauge and have put in another test gauge. But as soon as it hits boost the car backs down like it is slipping the clutch. All components are working the fmu raises fuel pressure, but the car lacks power. I have put in an ACT clutch and it still does the same thing. I have compression tested the motor and it comes out fine. I had the turbo rebuilt to be safe and even sent it back to have it checked out again. I can not figure out the problem any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

fmu and missing link.....
stupid question, the missing link is installed correctly? it only goes one way. but should give you a CEL if it is in wrong.

Re: Seems like clutch slip
your probably running too rich or too lean, and are you using anything to back off the timing? You can get a wideband and check your a/f ratio.
You should seriously look into a better fuel management and have the car tuned.
What size injectors are you currently running and what fmu plate are you using (12:1, 8:1 etc)

do something before you blow it up

Re: Seems like clutch slip (N20civicB18)
FMU is 12:1, stock injectors only running 7psi boost. Has wideband in it and states that it is running fine while boosting. Gonna put it on Dyno for some testing.

Re: Seems like clutch slip (tricura)
what afr are you getting? and are you adjusting your timing? did you lower the gap on your spark plugs? have you pressure tested your charge pipes to verify theyre not leaking boost?
What size injectors are stock on an s2000?
