guys my turbo sucks!!!! i got the greddy kit on my 6th gen w/ the CEL light on and i raced a i/h/e SI and it beat me by like a car length when i had a **** start and bald tires. WTF. ok i need to get trid of the blue box and get what for my fuel system system? i want boost and real power this **** sucks. thermal where are you? i didn't have my FMIC on either oh well and i have a system in the car i know i gotta get rid of it. what am i gonna do?

 

definitly rid the subs, if u have 17's get rid of those, free all hp u r loosing w/ out adding power... then get a better exhaust system DP etc, definitly dont run cats.. get a FMIC and run like 8psi... if it still sucks swap in a B16A

 

got the fmic no 17's getting rid of the subs, i got leather amnf donmt want to get rid of them cause they are rare. no swap yet, but hte boost is going up

 

Just for comparitive purposes, on 6psi with my GReddy on my 6G EX with stock Si 2" exahust, I raced an Si with i/h/e tuned camgear and little stuff and pulled cleanly away from him, over a car length by 3rd starting from 40mph in 2nd so.. your car IS faster, getting the most of it is up to you.

 

i have no vtec cause of the blue box i think. i got wiring instruction for the teg and i think that one of those wires is for vtec so its not kicking in

 

i think i know the prob w/ the cel light, i think when i wired the blue box that the instructions i got on line were wrong. they were for the integ model and i think i might have tapped a VTEC line and it's not kicking in. anyone use the blue box? if so how was it wired?

 

WHat car do you drive?
sorry.
if its an ex and your boosting the stock boost(which i assume you are) it wont be enough to beat a well driven Si with some basic mods.

 

see thats what i thought too, but everyone told me i should be able to pull beyond an I/H/E si. plus once again i'm w/o VTEC for some reaseon so it's like im driven on a dx motor

 

When your CEL is on, your car automatically runs in closed loop. Which means (if you don't know) that your timing is retarded drastically. Before you do anything, fix that problem. My brother had that happen on his Si, and it only reved to 7K and bounced off of the rev limiter. If you don't know, the Si revs to 8K. Fix the CEL then go from there.

 

ecus, especially obd2 ones will run in many very different "safe modes" for different bad readings it gets from sensors. A check engine light does not neccessarily mean the ecu will disable vtec, or lower rev limit or drastically retarded timing, but those are all possibilities depending on what the ecu sees as going wrong.
