Bobby- I had similar issues especially with the VTEC "thud" every time it engaged (slight loss of power). Answer? Get an MSD ignition in there- it really pulls now especially at the high end. Seems the stock ignition spark gets weaker as the rpms go higher.
Also, you'll need to experiment with the ignition timing after you do this. I ended up tuning it by ear to find the sweet spot. Now baby FLIES. Today at lunch I casually punched it while in third gear and she soared up to 90 in a matter of a few seconds. I feel the need... the NEED for SPEED.

I appreciate everyone's help with the axles and the vehicle speed sensor and the engine codes. I figured out what the engine light was on for, when I wired the 4 extra sensors I pinched the Solenoid Wire causing VTEC not to engage. But I have one more question, but it might be a bit of a long shot. The car runs pretty good now, and I love VTEC but for some reason it seems like I am losing power in 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear. I ran the car in the 1/4 mile and it ran slower then with my stock Si engine in it. First and Second Gear Pull very hard but it takes forever for the car to wind out 3rd gear. I thought it was just because of the lack of torque but when I ran a slower 1/4 mile I knew something wasnt right. I double checked, VTEC is ingaged during third gear but it has no accleration.I have a Y1 tranny but it is such a oain because of the short gearing. Has anyone experienced ths problem or has any idea what I should look for. Fue! > l Pressure looks fine but the gauge is under the hood so im not sure what it's doing during driving. Maybe someone can give me some advice. Thanks in advance! > > Bobby > > 90 CRX Si > > > > --------------------------------- > Do you Yahoo!? > Faith Hill - Exclusive Performances, Videos, & more > faith.yahoo.com
