Im posting this behalf of my friend.
He has a honda civic ex (4 door) with b16a engine with a stock ecu which came with the engine.
Recently about 1 week ago, he did some minor mods on the car.
He changed the throttle body to Skunk2 throttle body.
Now, the car is having some problems.
The timing is not right, sometimes when the car is idling, the timing is at 500rpm, and the car feels like dying.
Sometimes even when hes driving, after rembat the car on the highway, and then drive slowly, when he changes gear, the car will die, and he needs to start the car back again.
And since he changed to the Skunk2 throttle body, i cannot even tell there is any difference, and the sound of the VTEC is not as loud as it was before.
So can anyone help me diagnose the probelm?
What would you recommend to do? Tune the car? Change the ECU? Need everyones help pleaseeeeee
