power steering/ ac question
i have a 96 civic ex with a b16a..i got the car as a shell and then threw the engine in...i never drove this car with ac or powersteering before and i was wondering if this has anything to do with the car being more bogging wen shifting(not saying anything is wrong with the engine or transmission) then my 96 integra ls with the ac and power steering and shifts alot smoother and no boggin at all between shifts..
i belive they both have excedy street clutches..its not buggin me out but i was just wondering if theirs maybe a fix..and why do people put harmonic balancers or w.e...sorry for such a noobie question..oh btw..no cel lights or anything..car runs perfect idles great...i have a em1 throttle cable and bracket if that matters..thanks!!

Im pretty sure the harmonic balancer is needed to keep the engine balanced. Your probably losing engine momentum if you didn't put one on?
Are you saying you are not running one?

Re: power steering/ ac question (v8 integra)
Well on my D16, the Harmonic balancer is part of the main pulley.
I assume your B is similiar, so yeah... you are probably running one.
Why its bogging between shifts, i dont know, but your power steering/ac would not be the problem.
Did you swap a new ECU in when you put the B16 in?
Did you lighten your flywheel?
The integra engine is a 1.8 and has more torque, so maybe thats why you are feeling the difference?

Re: power steering/ ac question (95streetciv)
its not really bogging..its just more sensitive than the acura wen shifting...but if u say its nothing to do with the ac and ps being removed..then it must b the aftermarket tranny mount?? im not sure wat brand the motor mounts are but i do kno the upper driver side and the rear T mount are honda for sure..im not sure if the other are honda as well....does anyone kno if the mounts have honda stamped on it?
