#131588 Alright folks finally got the car back, new motor put in. I went with the D16Z6.... BUT now I have acceleration issues. The car bogs down anything under half throttle. If I give it anything past that it stops.... Now I am still running the VX tranny.. I am on the hunt for the EX tranny(I thnk I need one out of the same year right??) So yea Idles great, and after about 4 grand it pulls its nutts off. The VX tranny really slows it down though, its super long winded.( i knew it would be like that, which would be ok but with the boggin issues, its a pain in the ass). Also no Check Engine light and looks like the only way to change out the TPS is with another throttle body, which tells me that honda doesn't think you should ever have to change that bitch out since its rivetted in.

Anyhow I will have picks up tomorrow and any ideas you guys have let me know. l8r

#190392 :woot: New intake on the car & car is getting better & better. ALso new mirrors.

Had some trouble from the start because I din't know the plugs for the Map & TPS where the same... so I had those swap causing it to run like complete poopie. Next thing on the list is to Install the new O2 sensor.... then pick up an exhaust.

Few Pics

I think I am going to make my own intake since I'm a cheap ass and the one I want I don't have the money for yet. Anyhow... :thumb:
