b18 turbo setup- dies after it hits rev limiter
Posted: Thu Aug 11, 2022 7:54 pm
I've had this setup for quite a while. I got it back on the road after a few months. Broken intermediate shaft etc.
Anyway I uploaded the new hondata firmware/software and went for a drive. If I hit the rev limiter in any gear, the RPMS fall on its face almost like a boost cut, then it gives me a random rev limit like (2000RPM or 4000RPM) for 20 seconds or so then it goes back to normal.
I can do full pulls in 3rd, 4th etc and there is absolutely no issues.
I did a datalog to take a look at whats happening and as soon as I hit the rev limiter in third, it reads 35000RPM, MAP pressure reads 862 PSI, coolant temp reads 239, it says I'm in 58th gear. Very odd... not sure whats going on.
Its a non-vtec b18, sleeved, pnp head, crower 404s, RC1000s, precision 61mm turbo in a 89EF hatch. OBD0 to OBD1 conversion harness.
Im on hondata version 2.7.8.0.
The datalog frame right before this photo shows everything absolutely normal. This here is exactly after I hit the rev limit 1 time.
