hey i jus turned up my boost in my 97 accord to about 8 lbs. before it was at 5 no problems. i put the Emanage in and got it dyno tuned and everything, air fuel is good. and everything seems ok except when i hit about 5000 it dies tilll about 5600 then it goes right back to normal. im guessin turbo lag. ne ideas? ne solutions? thanks in advance

 

not sure I understand... it dies? if so how could it get to 5600? more info pls

 

I also am unsure by your description, but I doubt the cause is the turbo spooling.

more info.

 

he posted this on my home sight as well, and im gonig to tell him the same thing. That his EManage is ******* up at 5k-5.7k and its most likeyl running lean, so take it back to were you got it tuned and tell them to fix it.

 

yes more info please

 

it doesnt look lean on the air/fuel chart tho but that has to be the prob;em somehow. its going back to the place where it was tuned tomorrow. i dont have much confidence in them that they will fix it. however they did leave my plug wires unplugged which leaked oil all over my whole engine bay. they told me i needed 310lb injectors even when im kept suggesting that they would be too small

It doesnt really die but it bucks for about 600 rpms then goes back to normal.

 

yer still losing me, but if its bogging i would say that rich state, but high in the rpm band I would think the opposite. as far as 310s, what is your final hp goal?

as far as taking it back, if they fucked up once, what makes you think they won't do it again. Not reassembling a customers car before pick up os well beyond bad form imo

 

i wanna be at like 230hp im at 217 now so not much more. if it is running right i think ill be in the 230's. im taking it back cuz its free and the guy swears up and down that he can fix it so i said let him try if not ill tkae it somewhere else but which i have to pay.

 

I would probably run a 450cc injector. Better to be too big as to be too small. What are you running now?

 

i say close the gap on the plugs. i had .32-.30 gap, i felt what ur talking about, the power cuts out. i read up looking everywhere, then i found it, it was my spark being blown out. i closed the gap to .28 and it never did it again.
if it's not that....sorry

 

ok ill try that thanks. i have 310lb injectors now but i jus bought them i cant jus throw em in the trash and if i sell em im not gonna be able to sell them for much cuz theyre so small no1 wants em

 

i think its a blown head gasket also posivtive

 

almost

 

nope now after testing today we concluded i blew my rings
