Default Help with WOT bogging...

I recently traded a 94 ex i/h/e coupe for a 96 dx coupe with a sohc vtec swap. The car runs great except for one thing. The damn thing just dies under heavy loads @ wot. It idles great and gentle to moderate accel is fine, but wot will just die off until you let off and try to resume accel at a slower pace. Now the engine is still using the dx harness and the dx ecu, so obviously there is no v-tec swap over to complicate things. I have checked the plugs, dist, wires, timing, fuel filter and injectors. I am not really trying to smoke anyone in this thing as I traded for it so it could be my commuter (sp?) car and I already have a gsr-t (in progress) and a truck. Was just hoping that someone could give me a little help here.

Here are some picts of the car, its pretty clean imho.



this is the only real flaw on the trunk


Thanks for any help.

WOT Bogging sucks.. my old GSR swap used to do that. I replaced every sensor, every gasket, every ignition component, and still happened. I ended up selling the motor to someone who completly dissassembled and rebuilt it, threw it in his hatch, and it still bogged. Hopefully you have better luck than I did

Sounds like you need to adjust the throttle position sensor.
