I have a 91 hatch w/ b16. When I first got the car it would burry the speedometer at 125. Now it hits 110 and acts like its hitting a limiter. What could cause this to start happening?

 

Thats a governor all jdm ecus have it.
My b16a stops at 110-115 and bogs down then goes again till about 110-115 then bogs down again.

 

get your ecu chipped, no rev limit and speed governor

 

mine did the same thing got it chiped with mugen program now it will go past 125. just got to be carefull because it takes off the rev limiter.

 

first off UGH to the replies so far.


Now OP are you talking post swap or did this just start happening?

Have you made any changes at all what so ever since this started?

 

MIne is speed governed at 112. Why go any faster than that anyway?

Pointless.

Yeah, but its HARD to do on autocross...lol
I could break it at Miller, but there are other cars Id rather drive there.

 

My speed limiter is rev limiter in 5th

 

honestly your crx dosent need to go over 115 after that speed its just unsafe, and hondas handel like ****.be safe man

 

suck it hater. any car that goes over 115 is unsafe retard.

 

no $hit

 

so is there any other way to bypass this besides ecu chipping the jdm ecu/

When I bought the car it already had the swap done... and at the time i bought it it would pass 110mph. the night i bought it i took it to the track and me and my buddys always act retarted on the interstate on the way there. we roll about 80 or 90 and speed off from each other and ****. and that night my car went way past 125. but last time i tried this it stopped me at 110 and it was pissin me off cause i was playin around with a mustang gt on the hiway on the way back from the track. i would stay in front of him and pull on him until i got to 110 then he would pass me. all i have done to the car is fix a temperature sensor, but anyway yeah i know its not real safe to go that fast in a hatch but i jus cant figure out why it never did this before and it does it now.

 

Illegal street racing/driving ftl.

 

not getting enough feul when it gets up there?
is it redlining or the revs just at a certain rpm?

its definitely not redlining

 

its his ecu he has the jdm form the b16 ef, they limit at 112 due to japanese law

 

that sucks... so will i have to get a whole ecm to change that or can it be changed without changing the ecm?
