because I get no responses lol, anyways this is my post on tuners.
Ok I've got a pretty big problem, lets start off with this, I have a JDM 6 bolt in my vr4. since my last motor blew in July of last year. well I rebuilt the the head with Crower Spring and Retainers, and the block was left untouched besides new gaskets and seals. Mods on the car are :
BSE kit
3g revised lifters
MLS HG
ARP Headstuds
DSM GT High flow manifold tapped for egt
MHI B16g fed from the head with a SS Line.
2g hard intake pipe
2g maf
Evo 560cc Injectors
Stock FPR
Evo IX Fuel pump
HKS EVC
Evo FMIC with a Custom piping kit made by a member on Gvr4.org
Eprom ECU
Keydiver chip
SAFC.
Solid Timing belt tensioner
Gates Blue Timing belt
EGR Delete and plugged throttle body ports.
2.5-3" Straight pipe.
2g o2 housing.
Gauges inside the car BOOST/Vacuum, Oil Pressure, and EGT
XTD Stage 4 6 puck unsprung clutch with New slave/Master cylinders and a extended clutch rod-SS line
Well the problem is, After I had put the motor together an oil was leaking out of one of the sprockets so i replaced the seal and then re-timed the car. It idled like it had cams, but I know I didnt add cams to it 0_o. well I rechecked the car and timing was off by half a tooth to one tooth. I re-timed it again, and made sure it was set right. and it still idles the same way, I've checked boost leaks, and I havent found any. and I changed spark plugs and wires. my idle doesnt like to stay where it should, i set it to 900-1100 but if sometimes it goes to 1200. if i turn on headlights and heater itll drop to 800 ish and wants to bog and die. if i turn my steering wheel sometimes it will draw to much power and idle will kill itself. When I drive, all I smell is fuel, and if i am at idle I smell fuel. I do not know if its because im straight pipe or if its because the IX pump is overrunning the system. I do smoke black sometimes when I am driving I hear from my friends behind me. and my Boost gauge is set as a Knock gauge, and I get maybe two light bars on stock boost, and 7 bars at 12 psi or more. I dont know if its rich or not, Ive taken out fuel and added fuel with no benefits. I just want to know whats going on with my idle, why my vacuum is so low, and why I am knocking -__-. Thanks
PS:also is the breather on the left side of the valve cover thats connected to the intake, supposed to be sucking in air? because thats what its doing.
and it DOESN'T knock all the time, just sometimes, and sometimes its way less than others. wtf!?
