Problems with my with Turbo setup(orlando)
I have recently turbo charged my 7th gen civic and am having tunning isues. Sometimes when I stop at the light the car will shut off on me but turn back on with no problem. When I gun it after about 4,000 rpm it starts boging on me. I can't seem to get the s-afc to eliminate the problem. I think the problem lies somewhere in the fuel system. I have stock srt-4 injectors if that helps I think they are about 400 something cc. I am here in Orlando florida and as soon as I work the kinks I will be selling a kit.

are the injectors to only thing that you have done to your fuel system...are you sure that the car is "bogging" at 4000rpm, or cutting out cause of no fuel...give me some more details so that i can help you

Rep Power: 0 It shouldnt be a problem with not enough fuel the injectors are a good size, and they are currently the only fuel upgrade I have. I am considering putting in a fuel return and a FPR next week. The problems I think might have to do with the tranny(auto) when you gun it it bogs but if you let it go through the gears everything goes runs smooth. As far as the afc install I used the wiring diagram that I found on this forum. The wierdest thing is sometimes when I turn the ac on the car shuts off or doesnt boost as well.
