b18c1 backfiring and tuning? does any one even look at my post?
ok heres the problem...
its been sum time now that i had my motor in my car now like 2 or 3 months now and far as i can remember its been back firing ever since in low rpms say before vtec hits(5600) when i shift it back fires liek a pop in the frist 3 gears and the the gears go up the pops get weaker but they are still there its really annoying...
also my car idle is whack it idles at like 500 and the car vibrates and believe me i adjusted everything like the screw and all and check the iacv...
_ i think maybe tps? i dunno?...mines is rivited on to the t-body so i dunno if i should try removing it...
and also when i shift like at say 7-7.5 (x1000) rpms it made a sound like its choking... i dunno i recently put bosch platinum 2 plugs in like 2 weeks ago and they are black a lil so im runnin rich thats fine.... my fpr is at liek 55 i think....
most of my friends hybrid hondas have like grayish smoke coming out of there exhaust and idles nicely make me feel that they car is runnin right my car does have that graysih smoke its... i dunno if u understand wat im really saying...

have you checked the cap/rotor? also you should only run with ngk's. sounds like you do have a bad sensor or maybe a vaccume leak somewhere.

Your FPR is set way too high. With the vac off you don’t have to go past 50 PSI. Check the cap and rotor for wear such as black or burnt contact points. Get rid of your Bosch plugs and get some NGK 1095's
