dear members.
i did a swap from d15z6(ek3) to b18c.obd1
the car is much quicker,but 180hp?
does not feel like it.healthy engine burns no oil.
last week changed the sparkplugs.
and comparing them on a colour chart,looks like the engine is running on the lean side.
did read a lot on the net,some say jdm maps are a lot more agressive.
then again others say it is running lean and green?
i have changed out fpr/ ig.coil/iat/map cap rotor wires all oem parts.
leaves me with maps and cooling perhaps.
the radiator is single core with 32 mm in and outlet.
now question; could she be running a little hot.
and will the ect sensor rob it of some hp?
i measure 180ohms on warm engine(it should be between 200 and 400 ohms.
help is advised please.
on the chart my plugs look like the slightly hot ones.
oh and i do warm her up gently,but when cold she seems to have more power.
