Boost Issues...

[scttydb411]

if the last turbo wouldn't spool at all and the new turbo spools up quick then there isn't going to be enough fuel down low=lean.

you said aftermarket wires...hope they aren't bling fat wires. ngk or stock honda.

it just had a swap...it sounds like the map and tps may be backwards. that might explain why light throttle it seems to be ok and then heavier throttle is runs crappy.

overheating could be a lot of different things. was the coolant system bled? running a thermostat? bad headgasket, motor, etc.

Yeah theyre ngk wires. And I took my time on the swap. I labled the plugs on the wiring harness to be sure I didnt swap any around.


And yes Im running a thermostat, and all of the air has been worked out of the system. The motor was rebuilt with stock internals just 20k miles ago. And ran perfectly before I dropped it into my car. I actually got the swap from Jenson, he was telling me that he knew you.

But like I said its only tried to overheat just a couple of random times.. when the motor felt like it had alot of strain on it for whatever reason and it had a difficult time accelerating.

Heres a link that the owner before me posted after he had you tune it on the 4 pounds... Im not sure if the dyno graph will be of any help in telling if it has a weird tune or not to accommodate for the junk turbo
