Default Turbo crx problem

NO my car is not tuned I don't want to here get it tuned I know. I have a check engine light that I want to get rid of first. The car is a 90 crx with a sohc non vtec motor converted to OBD1. It has an internally gated t3 and dsm 450's. So the car wont rev passed 5500 in all gears whille driving for like 5 minutes until it kicks a code then it pulls to redline no problem. I have tried to check the code but when I turn the car of and jumper the ecu and turn it back on again its not there. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks Jordan

dont shut off the car before you jump the service connector. the code is probally a map code because if the stock ecu sees boost it will throw a code.

A stock ecu does NOT throw a map code when it reads boost. The stock Honda map sensor can read 10 to 11 pounds with no code throwing. My ecu is not stock it is chipped and running on a base map.. Reading OWNS YOU.

stock ecu will throw a code, a chipped ecu on the other hand wont. you never said that your ecu was chipped. i know a stock map can read up to ~11 psi.

a basemap is only for starting the car to check for leaks and to get it on a trailer. if you continue to drive it you WILL blow it up.

You want us to eat glass and **** a crystal ball so we can fix it for you? Fix the damn car and check the code. You know the answer and you look like a idiot for even asking.
