ok i took my turbo off for the time being- due to the fact that i'm moving to ,CA
and i dont want to boost what so ever dirving 2,500 miles there.
now every thing is back to stock except for the fuel pump. and i dont have enough
time to drop the tank again. i'm getting about 15 miles to the gallon w/ my 255
pump wich sucks. is there a way i can lean it out form the reuglator with out running lean. i'm at about 45 psi now. if i drop it down will it kill my motor?
has any one done this before? need help. i dont want to spend over
600$ in gas going out there.

 

lean it out, try 24psi see if you get any bog. UHH just a thought what injectors are you using?

Drive safe! Have a good trip, welcome to Cali~!! Well once you get here...

 

the injectors are stock, 24psi? DANG! thats low. i'm affraid of detnation
( did i spell that right?) anyways hows about the vafc? possable?
i'll give it a try this weekend but that seems ultra low. also this is a h22
so, would the same apply?
thanks
Ryan

 

thanks buddy! i cant wait..... i heard LA, is theft land, kinda wondering how long
i'll have my car for. i dont know where you live but is this true?

 

yup i heard stories people take any car even crap ones and drive it to mexico

btw you should've just left your turbo on... it would've been fine

 

the reason i took my turbo off for 2 reasons. 1 it was not running right every time
vtec kicked in my motor would flutter and go no where. so i dont want any problems driving there. 2 i'm moving to LA, and from what i heard people love to steal **** so i gotta figure a way to sortta hide the front mount, untill i get a garage. i dont know about accords, but go to the civic and teg fourm and see how
many cars get stolen a month.

 

The people that steal cars in LA are usually ppl that dont know Sh*t about cars that drive it to mexico. Number one stolen car was 1990 toyota camry i believe. But just be careful of where u park at times of the day and you'll be fine. I park everywhere and im fine so far.

 

ohhh, well... good luck..

 

good luck and have a safe journey, are u moving back here or are u gonna stay in cali??

 

thats where i'm going to stay for good i hope! depends on how long my job lasts.
i wish i could go now, the weather sucks in chicago. as a matter of fact it sucks
in the summer time too.... way to hot!
the only thing good about here are friends,having a lift and a shope to work on your car, and keeping the family car parked and locked up. i'm going to unknown land for me, so i'll be sleeping in my car waitting for some fool to try jack
Betsy, then i'll halft to pop his *** LOL!
i'm so paranoid i put every thing back to stock, i mean every thing.
i'm a head case..... sorry.
later.

my uncle lived in long beach. they stole his rusty 1987 mazda pick up......... now thats fucked up.

 

stock fuel psi at the fuel rail for the h22 is 32 psi. Do you have a rising-rate fpr? if so, try setting at 30, and putting everything on your fuel settings on the vafc at -3% all the way across the band. Also, do you have any internal engine work?(lower comp. pistons, port work etc)? if i were you, i'd set things the way i stated, make a full throttle run and check the plugs. white specks=more fuel,
