Like I asked before, give me some details as to the setup in the car, engine, turbo, transmission, spark plugs, boost level, and management. Thanks.

@pookiee

uhh, despite my poor but growing knowledge of turbos, i bought it. brought it home after blowing the damn battery fuse(that will never happen again…) ive had it on the road for 3-4 days. runs, starts everytime,

What caused the fuse to blow?

@pookiee

only things ive noticed since the purchase with the lack of info given, boost gauge line wasnt attached and actualy broken in the spot on the back where you plug it into the guage.

How much boost are you making?

@pookiee

had a p28 a01, which is a vtec automatic ecu, kind of wierd. put my p28 a52(not sure if its a52 thats the 5 speed si/ex ecu, its outa my 93 ex.)

Are you saying you just put in another ECU?

@pookiee

im trying to get my hands on a p07? (jdm ecu for the sohc zc.)i know there rare.

Do NOT do that. It will not help you at all. I’m not sure why you think it would.

@pookiee

might just have to get my ecu some hondata action. seems like the car is getting confused on boosting sometimes, which i think is because the ecu isnt ideal. what i mean is ill hit 5k and it seems like its holding back. only happens half the time im pulling on it hard, which is rarely.

This is due to the lack of a tune. a turbo’d motor doesn’t mean anything if you don’t have the proper support for it all (aka injectors/tuning)

I highly suggest that you dont start the car again until you have a better idea of whats going on. You are risking the motor by driving it if it doesn’t have a tune.
