I have an ITR motor in my 94 Civic coupe.
I dont know much about the car since I bought it like this.
Chipped P28, Intake, Exhaust, everything stock.
When opening it up, the motor feels okay till about 4-5k.
Then the power gets flat the rest of the way and doesnt rev past 7k.
Its not like rev limiter bouncing off; it abruptly stops reving around 7k.
Is this kinda symptoms familiar to aynone?
I've driven a perfectly running H22 Accord so i know this car aint acting right at all.
What things should I check?
The more details the better.
TIA.

 

Is vtec even engaging?

 

Have you thought of the hybrid forum?

 

Yes VTEC is working
also there are no codes...

 

i have a similar issue going on with my b16 eg w/ stock p30. the car runs pretty well, and then at 7k it just stops pulling. it doesn't want to rev any higher.

 

i would start out by checking all the grounds, particularly the ecu ground on top of the trans. those damn computers do strange things when they're not grounded.

 

...and if i hold in the clutch, it seems that it could rev past 7k. (kinda nervous to rev much past 7k in case it's leaning out on the top)

grounds seems to be fine, theres even the stupid hyper ground system in place.
but yeah, the stock grounds are in place just fine
