loss of power after reflash
loss of power after reflash
I have a 06 si with an AEM short ram intake, magnaflow catback exhaust and the hondata reflash. The car appears to loose power between 4500 RPM to 6000 RPM. Is this because I have a SRI and not a CAI?
The first advice is to put the car on the dyno and measure both the power and AF.
The CAI is much better than the SRI, but the reflash should improve power over stock with either intake. One problem which we've seen is that all after market intakes alter the AFM/MAF signal, so that the fuelling is not correct, especially in the mid range.
What is the minimum internal diameter of the complete exhuast system? More often then not after market cat back exhausts have small internal diameter mufflers, or sections in the exhaust system, and these will make less power than stock.
