Timing is on, valves adjusted to spec drives normal before vtec, once it hits VTEC it falls on its face. Anyone know what the problem could be? Skunk2 Stage 2 Cams, Skunk2 Cam Gears, Skunk2 Intake Manifold, Retainers, Springs, and Valves. TIA


P.S. Stock fuel system and ecu

 

It's your 'STOCK' ECU! I had everything you do (except I ported and polished my stock manifold) and I did the same thing when I rebuilt my motor and ran a stock ecu for a while.......Let's just say it ran like **** (felt better without VTEC) up until I sent the ecu to Skunk and got it reprogrammed............Lesson learned..................................

 

you're going to need to move that vtec pt to around 5800 or something like that.

 

yep

 

OMFG....not to be an *** or anything bro, but you've got such a sweet setup and you're trying to run it on a stock ecu and fuel system? you can't go half *** when it comes down to fuel and tunning! that's where all the power is found!!

 

your problem is your low vtec crossover point

 

im probably gonna sound like a dick or something. but you put enough time into putting in cams retainers and all that and just let it run on a stock ecu. your asking for trouble. tune it and then see how it feels
