If you buy a used engine with a damaged or malfunctioning Throttle Positioning Sensor(TPS), then you’ll need to replace this before starting your engine to make sure it will run properly. The throttle positioning sensor sends real time throttle position to the ECU which in turn adjusts the flow of fuel through the injectors to [...]
I finished masking all the parts that need sandblasting tomorrow so this should help keep the key areas from getting damaged, although I know that some of the tape might get ripped off which is OK. I also cleaned the old gasket of the intake header surface that mates with the cylinder head. I used a razor blade [...]
After friday night’s Mission Raceway drag racing event, I put a 360 spin on my idea of doing the bodywork first and instead will invest the time into a turbo setup. Before I actually go through with it, I will do some research and post what I come up with. My Goal is around 200HP with my stock D16 engine. [...]
While doing my engine swap from D15B7 to D16A(D16Z6) I had to swap my throttle bodies around to figure out why my car was running funny and while doing so I noticed that both looked the same size inside. After doing some research on the net today I found that they are both 56mm in [...]
I installed a B&M fuel pressure gauge last night and now I have a better understanding how my fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator are working together. When the vacuum hose is connected between my fuel pressure regulator and my intake manifold I get 31PSI at idle and 40PSI at full throttle and when I [...]
The car has been running good since this morning so I decided to wireup the VTEC tonight. I soldered all the wires to make sure I was getting good connections and used some zapstraps to keep the wires tidy. Overall it was an easy thing to do and now I don’t have the engine light [...]
The engine still had issues running rough the last few days and I didn’t have time to do the valve adjustment to see if that would help so I messed around with the sensors last night and added some fuel injector cleaner into the tank and this morning it seems to be good. I also [...]
Well 2 weeks have passed and I managed to get some more mods on the car. I got Mufflertech to install a 2.5″ exhaust from the Catalytic Converter all the way back to a Magnaflow muffler with a chrome tip. This should be sufficient to spool up a turbo pretty quick on the up coming [...]
Great link about the maximum HP you can run with your stock injectors RTR Performance. So looking at this formula 92-95 Stock injectors are 240cc divided by 5 = 48HP per injector so 48HP times 4 =192HP So the stock injectors are good for upto 192HP more or less, I would say if you running [...]
