I would start by posting your HP/TQ graph with A/F ratio curve on it as well. If you don't have it, ask it from your tuner.

Injectors arent a performance mod. With the graph, you should post a list of mods as well.

well i can tell you that there is defiently something wrong. do a pressure test to make sure you dont have a blow by in a cylinder.. also the only things that would help you in making more is maybe the I/H/E that you have and maybe shcams everything else will not help in making power. check your cylinders and make sure that you are getting fuel to all the cylinders also.

my internet engine analyzer says it needs concrete information.

dyno graph?
peak power rpm?
peak torque rpm?
compression test?
leak down?
freshly tuned up engine prior to tuning?
check engine lights?
altitude? atmospheric pressure?


give us information we can actually use and you will get real help and dont be so concentrated on what the peak power the engine makes.

i went 14.0 at 97mph in a 98 prelude with 137ft lbs of torque so says the tuning tool....i mean dyno.

As it was already said, try to post dyno graphs so that we can judge from there. But just to gice you an idea, I tuned my stock H22 last friday on 100 octane and it made 200whp & 159lbs. torque. This was made with an almost perfectly flat fuel curve at 13.8:1 and 31 timing degrees.

The fuel curve looks fine, but how about your timing? Is it possible to share your map? Have you done a compression test on that motor?

what's the timing on it?

the torque/hp curve looks good just very low.

my b18cR has way more torque then that
something is off or your living in the himilayas

check spark, fuel and compression and come back

revhardallday

What was the condition of you car before you took it to the tuner?
Did it drive ok?
How was the gas milage?
Did it smoke? Blue or Black.
The numbers seem low, yes. But did you car have an issue before you even made it to the dyno.
How do your plugs look?
What is VTEC set at?

How do the plugs look now? Clean and normal or covered in black soot
If one cyclinder is acting up.
The plug might tell you.
