So took my whip for her first longish trip drive. Boy was I nervous. Santa Barbara and bank to sd. At night takes 3 1/2 hours to get there and coming back on the 405 and 5 on a Saturday any so cal resident knows doubles that time. She preformed flawlessly. Was so stoked installed this today. I know it's for looks but I swear my vtec cracks harder. Also installed a new solenoid gasket too.
Here's my next problem though!
Noticed my car lagging at full throttle. Like something was holding it back. If I didn't push the throttle all the way down it felt like normal acceleration. Only thing I could think of was tps. Sure enough at closed throttle the meter read at .57. The one that came with the car was broken and I replaced it when I cleaned the throttle body and other stuff on the im out, and thought I saw .47 instead of .57. Long story short I can't move the tps over anymore and it's stuck at .57. I got the sensor at autozone. My question is can I take a Dremel and extend the screw slots on the tps so I can move it over a little more to hit the right calibration or should I just get an oem tps. Thing is it's not throwing the tps cel.
Any suggestions would be righteous.
Stay classy San Diego!
