i wondering if somebody could let me know what they think is wrong with my motor. Its a d16z6 in a 94 coupe it only hits about 6200 to 6300 then it just bounces and i know their supposed to hit 7200 where they redline

 

Completely stock setup?

1 post? is it really that hard to maybe give SOME information?

 

lol x2

 

yeah its a all stock setup

 

I've noticed a lot of factory tachometers are off by about +/- 400 RPM. I'll be street tuning and datalogging with CROME Pro and the driver will ask why they are redlining at 8000 and not 8400 as they requested. I'll have to explain that this is normal and the computer is actually reading 8400 while they're stock cluster is reading 8000.

You may have a cluster that is just REALLY off.

Do you have a way to datalog the car or perhaps borrow an aftermarket tach to find out what the actual RPM is?

 

thanks that sounds like it may be it

uh yea i should be able to

oh another question you could prolly answer do you think the stage I cam from skunk 2 would make much of a difference

 

Minimal at best, but it might be worth it depending on the deal you're getting on it. If you do, I would definitely get cam gears to really take advantage of them.

Skunk2 cams aren't so bad to tune, but I've dealt with some other brands that create really nasty looking fuel maps when their not dialed in with cam gears.
