hey people, so here's the dilemma...
bought a 1997 ex coupe w/ b16a2 (2000 si engine). Builder says it needs IACV changed bc top speed was 85 mph, retarded slow acceleration, and cold starts required a little gas pedal action. After switching out IACV, the cold start issue was solved, but it still runs like crap. Also, i noticed ecu was p72, from the 96-98 GSR.... He says the car would need said harness and ecu to function.... i guess he did not know about ecu conversion wire harness from boomslang.... but i called boomslang asking about this situation, and the guy from there said the swap would work in my case, and not have such crappy results. He suggested it might be a bad connection with the harness; it could as well be other things going wrong. Any ideas? any help would be much appreciated. The builder says he doesn't know what could be wrong, given it was working fine before the IACV went out...
