::TPS Issues and failure symptoms::

[JKOBD]

... Not until the turbo kit was on did the car start acting sporadic. And to be clear, it was a friend of mines shop, and he intalled everything perfectly, I just didn't have another TPS. He said that it should have blown up for that reason. I asked Scotty, and he said the same thing.

So they installed the turbo kit and didn't fix the code? Did you get it tuned or what engine management was this on?

X2 what engine management do you have?

I have to say the tune may have contributed to the hole in the block. TPS is important, but it is only part of the pic. An overly lean condition will cause bucking, hesitation and other issues as well as engine damage. Def get that TPS fixed for sure before riding out with it again.

The only time I drove the car boosted, was back from the shop 2 my house. I was running a chipped P28 from Scotty, and I called him first after it blew and assured me that it had 2 be the TPS... I was going to get the car dyno tuned at Mainstream, but I couldn't even make it home.

an ECU is a BASEMAP, its not a license to go beating the shit out of the car.

You went in boost, with a broken TPS, you blew your engine. Lesson learned hopefully

Do you know what a TPS does or how it works? Read up on it and you will see why your motor blew up

I NEVER said I beat on the car! I drove it from the shop to my house. Yes, I know what a TPS does, and I knew that it was faulty, but I was assured that my car shouldn't blow up because of it. I'm not trying to cheap out and make it on a basemap. I know I have to get the car tuned, and I will. I'm just trying to make sure I have pin-pointed the issue before I go through this again.

...no one has answered my question about the Blox TPS.

Thanks for all the help.

Thanks man! Your the only person so far, who knows how to answer the OP's question in a post! REPS! Plus, I was reading on HondaTech and there were mixed reviews. Did you put it on, or did you have someone else install it?

This is why you lost the engine
