i blew a charge pipe off a few nights ago and i fear it was because i overboosted.

well since then if i go more than 10% throttle it cuts out HARD.

I switched the cap, rotor, plugs and it made no difference.

any idea what could cause this? Im thinking ignitor or tps?

 

anyone?

tps is a grip from honda id like some input before i get one from there or on here

 

Bad map sensor? are you running the sotcker? if you are and you boost too mcuh you will BREAK the map.

 

ya check the map

 

yes stock map sensor running 10lbs, mightve gone up to 12-13 when i blew the pipe.

can i do a visual inspection of the map or do i need a voltometer to test the signal?

 

reset your ecu, and then try to run. What is EMS are you running some programs running with the stock ECU act funny with the boost cut and if you hit the MAP limit. You need to reset ECU, takes you 5 minutes. If that does not work, check yout coinl, ICM in your dizzy. Then recheck your plugs and run it. If that does not work, swap your map sensor, TPS etc... If that does not work, shoot yourself cause you will be in for a long ride. Oh and check your grounds.

 

When I use to boost 14lb on the stock map sensor the car wouldnt go into limp mode until the 3-4 shift, then it would go no where, I would just turn the key off real quick then back on while still moving and all was good.

 

i reset my ecu half a dozen times and used some backup chips too

i pulled the plug out on my TPS to see what happened and low and behold the car ran 95% better

only problem now is when i try to boost it doesnt really spool up like it did before, instead it just gradually goes 1..2...3...4..5..6..7..8psi instead of an instant spool.


im getting a new TPS sunday so i dont think im going to drive it anymore until then

 

Where are you geting a new TPS from, do you have a B series? If you do the dealer does not sell new TPS's, you have to buy the whole Throttlebody..... if you can get brand new ones please let me know.... I want one too.

 

im getting one at the marcus dairy honda tech meet this weekend, dealer only sells tps with 700dollar throttle body. my setup is in my sig

any idea why unplugging the tps would effect spool of the turbo?

 

Guys i have replaced the cap and rotor,plugs/wires, and put in a KNOWN working tps.

its still doing it

the thing is if i unplug the tps it runs much better but will still cut out at high rpms

sometimes if you tap on the wiring harness the idle will bounce....could be connection problem at the ecu?
