my 89hb b16a2 only ran a 15.6,fastest run at the track.its not tuned but i should be at least in the 14's.at my launch i am bogging down before i hit vtech,i was told maybe a fuel pump and reg will prolly help,any one else having a proble like this? can someone help me out with some advice

 

noob question......
not even enough info and even if it was, there is no way of telling what would make you run such crappy times, except a crappy motor, so I would suggest some fine tuning.

ITS VTEC, VTECH IS A PHONE!!

Could be multiple things.Not enough info.


Why cant they have a program like the one for vulgar language for changing "vtech" to Vtec

what tires? what's done to the motor? who said it should run 14's? also who the hekll told you that you nedded a fuel pump?GIVE MORE INFO!!!

we are like blind men trying to screw the same

but other things like does the driver even know what he is doing etc.etc.etc I have seen guys at the track shifting at 7000 & wondering why it's not hitting faster times that is why I said we need more info not everyone will get into 14's on a stock b16

 

what's the mph and 60' times? you are leaving some important stuff out..

 

Why would you need a fuel pump,fpr,and tuning with a stock b16a2? Just use a stock pr3 or pwo and drive it.......

Theres alot of reasons why you can only get 15.6.......maybe driver,maybe clutch,maybe engines shot,tires,suspension,weight down,etc etc

 

ok heres more info: b16a2-ed6, typhoon intake manifold.aem cam gears, computer is a obd0 p28 chipped(redline 9500),the wiring and everything is switched to obd0, ls trans,excedy street clutch w/phantom grip lsd,16 inch rota slips on 215/55/16 yokahama avs es 100s tire pressure was good(wasn't slippin)just felt like it bogged in between launch and Vtec in first.the engine isn't tired either it has 38000 miles on it,its strong. i took 2nd out to 7000 a couple of times then 7600 and then 8200,it ran its fastest shifting at 8200,launched at 3600.when i ran a 15.64 times were r/t (.619)60'(2.392) 330(6.680) 1/8(10.132) mph(71.30) 1000(13.143) 1/4(15.64) mph 88.75.....second best run r/t (.706) 60'(2.354) 330(6.634) 1/8(10.119) mph(70.29) 1000(13.168) 1/4 (15.747) mph (88.05)......third best run which was my first of the night r/t (.423) 60'(2.437) 330(6.672) 1/8(10.152) mph (70.53) 1000(13.185) 1/4(15.75) mph(87.36).well those were my times and i feel i am a good driver,i think there is something i maybe missing or somewhere along the lines of wrong but i just don't know thats why i am asking for help from you guys so any suggestions would be good

 

damn a obd0 p28 u wanna sell it cause it is the only one out there to my knowledge. but good luck finding ur prob.

 

where is your vtec engagement set at?

 

is that my problem the ob0 p28? or are you being sarcastic? i just want some help

 

Vtec is set at stock,i was told Vtec is set where it should be if your using stock cams for max performance,if you have aftermarket cams then it should be changed to make max performance for those cams

 

i think the problem is in the driver seat

yes along with the ls trans your your OBD0 P28(you do know it's obd1 right) and your 16" wheels with the shitty 60foots

 

intake manifold can lower your performance.... because you lose the vacum effect. rpm @ 9500rpm stock head / stock cams. not going to do ANYTHIGN for you. you will not make power that high. and will just drop a valve shift at 8200. icant reember b16 red... 8200 8700? what was it guys. dont be shiftin at 7 your barly in vtec. chip *thumbs down* chips can LOWER performance. most of the time its just BS. i dunno i dont beleive in chips. i beleive in tuning.

good luck.
also what elevation?

haha there is no obdo p28....You are either converted to obd1 or dont have a p28..did you build the car or buy it like this? maybe you need a differernt chip...Try and get one with a stock b16 program,,no need for this 9500 rev limit ****.

 

ok the engine is obd2 and it was converted to obd0,i helped build my car,i just didn't do much of the wiring so i wasn't sure,i was told by the kid that helped with the wiring that it was a p28,so i guess its not then,ill check to see what it is.the ecu was givin to me chipped, that wasn't my choice i just needed one.i have the piggy back harness to change it to obd1 i also got that for free,can i get the car tuned with obd0 or should i change it to obd1 first?its not the driver,i have had others run my car,almost the same ,15.5 consistant.where should i start new obd0 ecu,then tune, or change obd0 to obd1,then tune? can i just take the chip out or do i have to replace it? and what should i do about making sure my vaccum is straght with the intake manifold?

 

Do yourself a favor...get rid of that chipped ecu and get a stock pr3 or pw0 wire in the 4 wires and ground for vtec and you'll notice faster times and it will run better to

does vtec even kick in now?

Judging by this info..Heres what I think is wrong...ECU sux..get PWO or PW3 I believe. LS tranny has tall gear..BAD for the 1/4 mile...215/55/16 tires...they are way way to tall and that coupled with the bad gearing of a LS tranny will slow you down.....Its like having a 400hp SBC in a camaro with a peg legger 2.41 rear axel...its gonna be slow but you change that gearing and its gonna make a difference. So get some smaller diameter tires(close in size to what comes on our cars) find a gsr cable trans? or get a b16a cable trans..then you should be in the faster

 

yeah my b16'd rex ran a 15.8 and i had no vtec, and launched at a little over 2000 rpm, with a set of steelies, yours should be a lot faster that a 15.6 if your **** is running good, in town i've seen a stock b16 in a rex run a 14.2 driver plays a lot too man

 

ohh i just noticed your ls trans. that is your problembut u should be faster than that
