Ok i bought a 1998 integra it has a b20 motor swap and a turbonetics turbo on it. Ok it drives fine until i try to get on it it just cuts out really bad. whats my problem any suggestions thinks guys
 
OK, stop driving it hard until the problem is resolved.

Now, what size injectors does it have? What does it have for tuning? Is it tuned? A parts list would also help.
 
I have no idea i just bought the car. The guy said it did need new injectors and a dyno tune. dont know where to go far that or how much it would cost for parts/and labor im located in st louis mo thanks
 
ok, stop driving the car or you could risk catastrophic engine damage.

Can you get me a picture of your engine bay? Try to find out what injectors and fuel pump you have and what kind of ecu you have.

After that we need to find you a tuner in the area, dyno tuning is usually $200-300 for a turbo honda.
 
Ok, i don't need pics anymore, that linked helped me enough, what you appear to have is someones show car from 8-10 years ago, its rockin and old DRAG kit, while drag kits were good options in the past there method of fuel delivery is now considered crude and prehistoric.

What you have is stock injectors and a boost dependant FPR, what this does is raise fuel pressure 12 psi for every 1 psi of boost, which means your only safe for about 6lbs and thats ONLY if you have a walbro 255HP fuel pump.

What you need to do is stop driving the car as said earlier, buy a decent set of injectors like RC650cc, remove the piece of **** FMU (its that disc mounted on your firewall), get a walbro 255hp fuel pump if you don't already have one, get a good ems, something like hondata or CROME if your on a budget and have that thing DYNO TUNED.

Good luck man, hope this helped.
 
Should i completely remove FPR and yes i am on a budget are all 650 cc injectors the same are should i get one specifically for the B20. Also there is a fuel pump mounted on the intake i think I'm not sure I'm new to this i got the car really cheap and decided to fix her up was gonna sell it but if u can help me get it to run right that be awesome. But just get new injectors and dyno tune and ill be fine though. thanks a lot man really appreciate it.
 
thats a sick looking acura mate, do what blinx says! :) good luck with it and keep us updated! :)
 
You need RC650cc saturated injectors for b-series Honda. And yes you would completely remove the fmu.
 
so get the 650cc injectors, remove FMU and get a dyno tune and it should run right?????

Also is it hard to put injectors in are should i just have a mechanic do it for mr thanks blink.:nice:

It's kind of tricky, its best to have someone else do it if your not sure or at least have a someone help you who has done it before, you might need a fuel pump also.
 
Ok will do where can i find theses injectors at been looking all over the place and cant seem to find them anywhere. What kind of fuel pump should i get as well want to buy everything at once. I really want to see what she's got what kinda of hp and torque u think i have:drive:

RC injectors can be had from just about any performance shop or online retailer that sells performance parts. For a fuel pump the Walbro 255HP should be great. As far as power there is no point in base lining it since it does not even run right.
 
blinx9900: do you know more about that integra? have any data 'bout boost, internals, EMS?
