Power problem
OfflineHi !!!
I recently bought a gtir and i had many problem to resolve a lack of power. I think i solved the problem has 95 % and have the impression which the car is not yet has its full power.
I changed and repaired this:
- Sparkplug
- Fuel filter
- Oil and oil filter
- Prestone
- Cap distributor and rotor
- emptied the catalyst
- Changed the muffler
- look for boost leak
- compression ( 140-140-140-140)
- Leak down (corect)
- Turbo boost (ok, around 6 mm/hg on oem boost gauge and stable)
The principal problem was resolve. The muffler was completely stoped but have still the impression i don't have the normal power.
Sometimes, i beleive that he have his full power and other times not.
Someone have an idea of what could be the probleme if there is one.
ps: it's normal to do 150 km with 25 $ of super gas (1.44 $/L) ?
thanks
Someone have an
i do almost 300 km whit a full tank
you can go at 160 km/ tank if youre racing it ..
so i think its normal
i do easily 400km on a full tank..if im super nice to it i can get 450..if im bagging it i get about 300
Ur not JDM till ur RHD
300-340 a tank in stop and go city traffic is pretty normal.
i have a similar prob have a flat spot just b4 boost kicks in any idea of wat the problem could be
Try regrounding the maf. I'd use one of the diagnostic tools ( Consult) to see what all the sensors are doing. Have you checked ecu codes?
I put in a mines computer and its quite a different power curve from the oem ecu. Smoother, More response, more power, better mileage. I think the car should have come with the mines tune from factory.
Knock sensor?
Mine isn't bigger than yours.. I just like to drive
first off do a fault code check..once that is done...make sure you are running a spark plug that is at least a heat code of 7...a heat code of 8 is required if you are running anything other than stock boost..
