noodels Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Soafter much confusion and head-scratching after fitting these cams/manifold last year regarding running rich and lean thinking the car need ecu modifications to get this corrected ie Hondata S300 and dyno testing at considerable expense <that i int got>also fitted new pump advised by dyno testing last year or year before?FPR fitted 5 times thinking that int working as it shouldHave got my thinking and arse in gear,checked a few things and found that i had fitted the Vac lines incorrectly.From the canaster infact to FPR and creating wrong psi under loads ect.prob due to haste install of the mani.Resulting in 10-20HP difference and a car that actually has what power with modifications is supposed to produce...nincompoop Now the car goes like f****stink..maybe a TB 68-75mm would help-with max power at 8000<up from7600> Epic fail . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
