check your oil level, you might not be able to get into vtec because of low oil pressure!

 

I had major Vtec dip, to the point where the car fell on its face. This was solved with a tune.

 

so i checked everything n everything is good...no leaks of any kinda ..oil level is good....i tried reving it in neutral to about 7 and it seemed fine js that it would a puffing sound wen i get to about 7rpms ..it wasnt a loud puffing kind of reminded me of a harly motorcycle how it makes a puffing noise from there exhuast ....mine sounded like the sound came from the exhaust...js wanted to seewhat ppl may think of this...

thanks

It is probably just running soo rich from the greddy basemap. get it tuned.

 

Definatly the basemanp, mine did that it felt slower from 6-9 than from 1-5k

 

okay no problem....i will definatley get it tuned...js wanted to make sure that it wasnt any thing serious


if any one has n e other ideas (hopefully not bad) let me know


thanks
Josh

 

what plugs and gap are you running?

 

lol @ that very precise description, the run on sentences separated by pauses, and to you for putting a turbo kit on a stock car and revving it to shit, only to come on the forum and asking for a diagnosis for a problem you cant describe because you think you might have messed something up..

if i were you, which im not as you can see i can type efficiently AND i would never run an UNTUNED and freshly boosted car, i would park the car, set up an appointment with a tuner and have it towed over there and let him/her take care of it. no point in washing out your cylinder walls because you were "trying to get past 6k".. omg i can go on for hours

 

^ seriously thank you, I do not get you people on here lol. One person posts something and you guys flame the shit out of them for driving on a basemap, than the next you guys tell them to check this,check that and everything else. What you do is install the kit, run it check for leaks drive it while being easy on it,stop make sure everythings okay. THAN GET THE DAMN THING TUNED DONT REV THE HELL OUT OF IT! I dont want to seem like a ass but please guys tune your cars, it is not worth the risk of blowing your motor cause you want to rev the crap out of it on the basemap.
