my set up is GSR turbo. GSR with drag 3 kit, FMU, 310, inline pump, MSD6al. ran into some trouble and can't figure it out. 1st pulls hard, than after that say 2nd it would boost 8lbs, than towards 5-8 grand it feels like the boost tops out.....boost gauge reads 8lbs still, but car doesn't feel like its puller hard anymore. we:
check for leaks, vaccum is good
check fuel, if it was runnin too rich.
spark should be good.
change wastegates
check all vaccum lines
timing should be good
turbo has no shaft play
changed plugs/wires
upgraded to MSD
probably other things i forget. anyone ran into similar problem. before i ran CTR cams and it ran like crap, removed cams and put back GSR, car runs way better. but still not runnin right. any idea/help would be nice!

 

Plz dont take this in any offense but how new are you to turbo setup. When i first got my setup instaled 3years ago it felt great, but about 6-7 months into it, it started to feel the same way, I found it was tuned and ran fine but i just got used to it that once the turbo spools fully and the initail pull wears off 5-6000 rpm it feels like it stops but actually doesnt. So "IF" your fairely new to turbo setup you may just be needing more power

 

what kind of exhaust setup?? if you dont mind me asking..

 

running 3" all the way. downpipe to mufler

 

GForceInteg- im somewhat new to turbo, but ive driven turbo cars with similiar set up and i know it doesn't feel right. with this t3/t4 its not suppose to feel like it tops out at 5-6 grand. i have a friend thats also helpin me and all his cars have been turboed. bump!

 

another thing i was thinkin valves could be a factor? but wouldn't you hear from the valve cover that valves are out of spec?

 

?

Did you set your timing again when you changed cams ? even 4 degrees retarded makes a huge difference up top.

 

timing is fine...anyone else! ?

 

are you getting enough fuel in top end?
before my car was tuned, i felt the same about my car.
i found out that i wasn't getting enough fuel in top end so my tuner fixed it.
i don't know.. it's just an idea.
hope u find out what the problem was.

 

im runnin inline pump, rc 310's, and 12-1 FMU. shouldn't that be enough fuel? thanks for the feedback, keep it comin!

 

you need a bigger turbo that will pull your *** all the way to redline

 

its a t3/t4 i think its big enough....im not sayin its not enough power, its lackin power at the top end

 

I know you said you checked your fuel, but recheck it again. Do some dyno runs.
Maybe your ignition needs advancing after the 6,000 rpm range.

should get it tuned and ditch the fmu.

i think you might be getting too much fuel. seeing how you are running the fmu and 310's and an inline pump.

when i had my drag kit on my h22 right around 5k it seemed like vtec hit but backwards... it slowed me down. i had a fmu stock inj (340 something cc)

i leaned it out some using a vafc it it felt normal after that.

but then i got hondata... and now its WAY better

 

thanks for the feedback, has anyone tired neptune?
