My obdo b16 won't go past 7200 rpm.could this be because it's not warmed up?some other guy whooped me in his b16 Rex bc he could hold WOT.mine kept sputtering.is there any way to bypass this or make my engine warm up faster?it's a stock ecu

 

You really should beat on a car intill its fully warmed up its not good for it at all.

 

i didnt try to beat on my car but i thought it wouldnt take that long to warm up. i treat my car like a baby.

 

Racing other cars doesn't classify as babying a car last I checked.

But what do I know, I've never babied any of my cars.... They aren't made for that.

 

Cel?

 

Not warm.

Vtec not wired right or not working

Low on oil

CEL

Disconnected speed sensor

 

Has it ever worked correctly before?
If not,You may have an ECU for an automatic..

 

No cel.I wired vtec and it works.it just wasn't warmed up

 

Yes, 7200 is the redline before water temp reachs 150F.

 

i was driving my car for a good 15min and it still wont hit 8200.it basically cuts out at 115 or 7200.i was driving for a while though.

 

i dont see why it doesnt warm up faster.

 

Does it ever reach operating temp? Sounds like you have a stuck open thermostat or the thermostat that is in the car is to low of a temp and the fan kicks on before the car gets up to normal operating temps. Is your fan hooked up like stock where it kicks on at a certain point and to a plug or is it wired to run as soon as the key is turned on?



Also what ECU are you running?

 

115 is the stock speed limit. Does the thermostat open up? One time I recieved a JDM block with a low temp thermostat and in the middle of winter the thermostat would not open up.

 

pr3 ecu. today was warmer and i could hit 8 grand. how do i see if my thermostat opens up?
