i just got back from the dyno and i cant post the chart but i have 152.5 whp and 110.3 fpt. the horse power skips a little in v-tec. do you guys have any idea what i wrong. i am taking it back to acura on monday.
thanks

 

are we all just soposed to know what kind of motor and mods you dynoed?

 

oh sorry... i have a 2000 py itr with 14,858 miles on it with aem cai and apexi cat-back and the motor has been babied ever since i bought it at 4600 miles. change te oil with mobil 1 syn. 5w-30 every 2500 miles.

 

do a compression test and give us the numbers. they should be around 210-215 on all 4. im assuming you have a pretty stock itr.


there is something definately wrong.

 

wow thats not good at all

 

already had one done last week that is why i got it dynoed. acura of pompano beach did it and sayed it was 120 across the board and i knew that wasnt right but they assured me that everything was ok and not to worry so really can agrue with them but now i have writen proof that there is something wrong with my R

 

There's a problem. Just take it to another dealer.

 

where did you get your ITR from. Did you get it new or used?

 

i bought the car used almost one year ago. (i picked it up on sept. 11 '01) with 4600 miles exact on it.

 

You got yourself a lemon.

 

ok, what kind of dyno did you use? what was the temperature? were you able to look at other dynos done by this place? (maybe its just calibrated wrong)
i got my car dyno'd and it seemed low until i compared the numbers with other similar cars dyno'd at the same place.

 

have you checked out your cat converter yet? have you used any octane booster
or injector cleaner? type r 1413 had his cat go bad after using that stuff. i would check that out. pull it off and look through it.

good luck

 

did you notice his compression test results, he pulled 120 across the board, not good, unless they did it wrong.

 

don't freak out, different dynos give different numbers. Comparing dyno #s is foolish. Every ITR i've seen dynoed at Speednation's Mustang Dyno has been in the 150-156 range. An ITR that got nearly 180 on a dynojet pulled 153 on the mustang dyno. Mustangs are brake dynos, dynojets are accelerometers....mustangs are more consistant. I got 155, my R is plenty fast.

The only thing a dyno is good for is tuning within a session, it's pointless to compare your #s to someone else's.

 

my bad, i looked at it and thought 220 for some reason...

 

What kind of dyno...that number might not be as bad as you might think. Check your timing as well. Sounds like it might be a little low (I've seen the exact thing before and found that the car was at 13 degrees). It should be 16 +-2 (so 14-18). Usually we bump everyone up to 18 and that seems to work very well for most.

Acura of Pompano has a bunch of morons working there....you're better off taking it to Acura of South Florida, or even better, Delray Acura for at least some sort of knowledge...

Delray Acura is your best bet....where did you get the dyno done? do they not know anything about cars, they should have been able to tell if something was seriously wrong???

 

vtec flutter ahhhhh

 

That was not a good day in the USA

Bin Loser needs to get caught, given a sex change, wipe his memory and thrown back into his country for some abuse.

 

ya the more I goto Acura.........the more I lose faith in them...........i constantly get questions like "5 speed or auto" from workers there.........even salesmen.......****** idiots

 

you mean you don't have the elusive, ultra rare ITR 4spd auto? I've got 2
