i instaled a turbo on my b16 this week and today i got it out for a run but the engine is not accepting boost .when the boost goes up to 3psi the engi is like slowing

get_nick · 03-04-2009, 02:07 PM

have you tuned it?

Matts96HB · 03-04-2009, 02:19 PM

Guessing it's untuned. Probably on a stock ECU, so you're running extremely lean. Do not run the car like this. Get it tuned, and then try again.

gatto-is-alive · 03-04-2009, 02:33 PM

yes all stock and untuned.

how can i tune it?

gatto-is-alive · 03-04-2009, 02:35 PM

i'm going to install a 5th injector is that good or not?

get_nick · 03-04-2009, 02:36 PM

wtf is a 5th injector going to do???

heres the deal. your car is NOT stock anymore. your car is running a STOCK ecu. think about it. you need to get to a shop and have them tune it.

also, why the hell did you do a turbo setup and not know that you need to tune it?

gatto-is-alive · 03-04-2009, 02:38 PM

so will i have to change the ecu or what?

get_nick · 03-04-2009, 02:40 PM

really? are you serious?

i'm going to ask you a legit question. who installed the turbo on your car?

gatto-is-alive · 03-04-2009, 02:52 PM

i installed any thing by my self but i dont know how the electonics of the car works so thats the reason of the quetion

get_nick · 03-04-2009, 02:57 PM

i guess i'm just in awe of the fact that you can mechanically do everything, but you don't understand the theory behind it.

read this...then post if you don't have an answer to your question.

Matts96HB · 03-04-2009, 03:21 PM

Man, if you continue to drive that thing, your B16 is going to be toast.

If you listen to one piece of advice, just park the car until you get a tune on that thing.

gatto-is-alive · 03-04-2009, 03:37 PM

10x i think i 'll go for a crome

Matts96HB · 03-04-2009, 03:40 PM

Yeah, check out this site. They offer all the services, and can even send you your ECU back with a basemap. Basically, call them and tell them your exact setup, and send them your ECU.

well thats how they used to do it on old lt1s and the v6buick guys still do it some times

i actually have a old LT1 vortec blower kit that came with a billet block that went in the charge pipe with 2 extra injectors in it

intenseneal · 04-19-2009, 11:49 PM

Yeah you need to tune that B16 badly. You are most likely running way lean. Get a Hondata S100 great tunning setup for boost and cheap S100 is only $200 plus tuning. Crome is ok but a Hondata will run the car soooo much better. Plus cost is around the same. I would look at getting some bigger injectors as well befre you tune. Get at least 310cc 450cc would be the best.

What makes you think that Hondata will make the car run so much better?
