spudley1988 Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 Ecu is in and threw eml light on any ideas why ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Could be looking for something that isn't there. Vtec oil pressure sensor? Knock sensor? Was it running a b18c4 before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Can you check the code.?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudley1988 Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 It is related to this apexi vtec controller and wire for ecu? Is it okay to still run this is thee ecu or how would I go about with wires to eliminate this? Plugged back in car was running fantastic and also found that my iab have been cable tied shut since owned car lol. What would your views on best way to go about this be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Sorry that bit about wire don't make a lot of sense. But dunno why people cable tie iabs. Jesus. You'll be 20hp up just for undoing the cable tie mate. Serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudley1988 Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 I don't know how their wired in but someone mentioned their must be a wire to It from ecu or something as when unplugged light comes on and runs lumpy and stinks of fuel so unsure what I'd need to do with wires. I didn't know iab were but car ran great and put 187 on dyno. Not sure how it would be if I undone cable tie as the map on ecu apparently deletes them anyway but it certainly whacks through a lot better now on the p28 so unsure if that's due to them being fully disabled and getting most of it from map or not or what would happen if I undone jubilee how itd respond due to them being disabled on map. don't understand it all lol but will run again later. I just don't know what needs done with what wires to be able to remove the vtec controller and not bug the ecu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Without seeing the wiring not sure what to tell you.Disabled on map they just wouldn't close when engine started. They shouldn't be clipped closed. They default open so shouldn't be clipped closed. Serious I've seen on a dyno stock b18c4 with closed iabs makes around 150-155bhp peak power.When open peak power will be about 170ishI don't think your dyno is accurate. Like say more like 155bhp max stock with iabs closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudley1988 Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 So it'd be okay to remove clip then would it? Not saying duno is 100% accurate but it's surprised a good few cars my mates have ep3 and a corolla t sport n b16eg. Not sayin duno is accurate though as you hear some crazy reading but it pulls very well. But am I better taking cable tie off and seeing how it runs? Just didn't think it'd make any difference but I'm not geared up on this at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Yeah will make a difference. Take cable tie off. Will go and sound loads better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
