me and my buddy just turboed his d16z6. if he puts the gas to the floor everything is fine till around 4-5000 rpms then it just stops and kinda acts like it is misfiring or somthing. boost gauge reads around 9psi, which we think is full boost(when he ordered the kit it didnt say what the wastegate dumped at) he has a missing link and i when we put it in it runs alot better than before it was installed but still not right. i think the computer is still detecting boost. anyone know what the problem could be?

 

what are you using for fuel management???

Exactly. Like you said, it could also be the missing link, since the ECU sees boost it decides to enter limp mode and drop as much fuel as it can.

 

but i said that he does a missing link, it shouldnt be reading boost, no fuel managment is only pushing 9psi

 

Your pushing 9 psi on no fuel managment. I'm taking bets now on how long the motor lasts, anyone down for this. I got like 20 bucks on a week tops.

 

he has been driving it for over a week now and has took it up to 9psi on a daily bases. ive seen up to 12psi, bone stock hold up for around 6months now and is still kicken, he takes very good care of it

 

Kids these days its all about the fuel management its the base of your project without good management your set up is garbage or soon will be

 

dont do wat i did i ran a root jackson racing super charger with out messing around with the fuel system i was boosting close to 15psi, and not long i blew a rod from the detonation. i would show you some picks of the hole it put in my block but i dont know how to put up picks.

 

i got 50 on the he doesnt make it past a few more days if he keeps driving it the way he is

 

yep sounds like the car is confused but the truth is its not getting enough air or fuel one or the other I've had that same problem... it runs great til about 4 -5000 rpms yep same problem upgrade fuel management

 

your fuel injectors are maxed out. upgrade to 310's or 440's and for the sake of boost.. get a fmu and a afc controller atleast if you dont go with a uberdata or hondata

 

vtec, Timing advancing turned off? or vtec turned completely off.

Turbo= Retard timing.
Vtec+na=Advanced timing.

u need freaking fuel management fool, if you're poor get a blue box, emanage or a freaking vafc. a fmu at the least so you dont blow your motor. and you're running a turbo on stock fuel pump and stock injectors?

 

This is ridiculous.. no management?!? Boost101. Back to basics please..
