The car struggle for a sec when i press the gas, anyone knows why? Could that be ground, spark plug or ignition coil problem?

powerwise modification of the car:
IPS K2
Stock mod airbox
DCRH
HKS exhaust
pulley
IMG gasket

EDIT: added calibration

without the calibration the datalog is mostly useless

Looks similar to my "problem". See thread
http://www.hondata.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3791

No answers sofar.
BTW Checking datalogs from others (for instance on the ClubRSX board) I have also seen ignition doing this...

I was also thinking if it could be caused by grounding, but moving the engine ground from the stock location on the intake manifold to the stud attached to the cylinder head as recommended did not make any difference.

I am currently using the beta version 1.2.0.9.
Before that I was using 1.2.0.7 - showing the same thing.

Test again with V1.2.0.9 Zero out the ignition compensation (by gear) and set all the TPS retard values to -100 Also, is there a reason for running open loop?

I tried saving the TPS retard value but it doesn't able to save. Any idea?

I am doing open loop during datalog for tuning the partial throttle

It will still work by putting the value and upload it.

But does TPS retard affect the ignition flickering?

(my CTR with PRA does not have TPS retard...)
