Default (TURBO APPLICATION) wondering if its a tuning problem?????? HELP PLEEEASE

ok so my 94 integra gsr turbo is running rich when i start my engine, and when it idles for a long time..... i need to shift at 5500 rpms a few times in order for the air/fuel mixture to lean out when im not boosting.

i put hotter plugs in (NGK BCPR7ES) and it ran better.

then, 5 or so days later, it starts running all sketchy (like the gas isnt getting ignited, so itll pull real fast for a second, then almost stall out, etc.), and i put 4 new plugs in (same ones as previously stated), and it ran ok, but still slightly sketchy once in a while....

i think i need to get it re-tuned....any help/ suggestions??? thanks

What kind of engine management are you running, and are you confident in your tuner's abilities?

Why are you buttholes talking about a clutch? That has nothing to do with it. It's a fuel issue.

Do you have a fuel pressure gauge on your fuel filter or fuel rail? If not, get one and tell us what its reading. With the vaccum line disconnected it should be around 50-55 lbs pending on injector size. What size are your injectors? Are they low or high impedence?

Most importantly, what engine management are you running? Is it tuned? Who tuned it and how? What significant modifications have you done?

Your lucky it's running rich instead of lean. I would recommend driving like an old lady until you get this issue resolved. Get back to us ASAP with the answers to those questions.

yeah the fuel pressure is like 45 psi with the engine running.....t3/t4 turbo, 450cc injectors,

i have chrome data running the system right now, i was confident in it last summer but , idk if i could make it to buffalo right now, which is the closest good tuner shop

any places in Rochester, NY you guys know of?? that would be a lot less stress


p.s. my clutch is messed up (look for 'clutch is madddddddd messed up HELP' threat )

thanks ill check this soon
