hey guys, new to the board btw.

i recently purchased a turbo h22a4 crx and am having some issues. whenever i floor the gas the car stops feeding the engine gas. i'm guessing this is an injector problem. since i'm not that knowledged im not sure what type of injectors i need to buy. any help would be great. also, if this isnt the problem then please help me out. here is a link to the car:

What do you mean by stops feeding gas? It could be fuel pump, the FMU, tune, or injectors. You should be able to look at the injectors and figure out what they are. Most company's etch the size on the injector.

 

i mean when i floor the gas pedal it will stop at around 5000 RPMS but it if press it down somewhat hard but not to the floor i can climb higher than 5000. Im pretty sure its not the fuel pump because I know thats definately working. Yesterday the relay went bad so I had to bypass the relay and now I have a toggle switch to turn the fuel pump on and off. I took it out yesterday and when i came back home it wouldnt crank back up. So now I have multiple problems. The Rex won't start and it has fuel problems.

 

first things first, quick rigging **** and fix/replace your relay. You need to narrow it down and if more **** is halfassed, it wont get any easier/reliable.

somethings prolly wack with the tune. check that out


you bought a very modified car, and u seem to know next to nothing about it. i hope it isnt your daily driver.

yep, you got that right. i wish i did know more but i guess thats what happens when you dont do it yourself. btw, i ordered a new relay already. the toggle switch is just a temporary thing till tomorrow when the relay gets in. its not my daily driver either.

 

okay, good to hear. Honestly, as much as it may suck to pay out the dough, it might be wisest to find a reputable tuner and take it by and see what they have to say/do about it. but to save yourself some time and money, fix as many little things like relays (i know you said you are) so it takes less time. tuning is usually by the hour so if they are always stopping to fix this er that, it adds up damn quick.

 

yea, i am definately getting it dyno tuned. theres just some many things i need to do before that. i need a custom radiator because when boosting the car overheats like a *****..., i need to take it to a muffler shop to get the downpipe connected to the exhaust, and the fuel injection problem. i was thinking that i should change out the injectors before tuning though because if it ends up being a fuel problem then a tune cant really fix that can it? and i wrong to assume that tuning the car before upgrading the injectors is a bad thing? i guess i just need advice, should i upgrade the injectors before tuning or not?

 

if they are the stock injectors, probably should upgrade them, but we dont know how "extreme" (for lack of better word at the moment) the turbo setup is. Are you running a big *** turbo at high psi on built block or what. The forced induction forum would be a great place to start asking your fuel questions.

 

good luck with the car it seems like it will be monster when everything is sorted out.
