turbo is a tad different and im not going shell out a few grand to fix an issue its not supposed to have. I'll buy a new car before i do that with this thing

 

Get a tune.

Sounds like PE Delay an Torque Management is killing you.

 

My Aeroforce interceptor gauge usually reads about 245-247whp. The other day I did a 3rd gear pull and it read 180-190whp... what the hell happened? could it be the weather? or just an unpredictable device for reading hp, lol.

 

That's a good point.

Are you going WOT and it hesitates in those RPMs for a second ?

That might totally be it.

I don't think VVT would be this noticable.

 

ive had my car for about 2 years and ive only hit the gas and really stayed in it 100 times... it sucks, ihavnt even had my car since november

 

yes i go wot and it lags between 2-4k and then it just opens up and goes. What gets me is it was never this noticeable before, like its real bad these days. I cleaned the Maf yesterday, havent had much of a chance to drive it after that but i do plan to get it tuned next month.

I pray this fixes the issue because its terrible

 

hey bro try living in chicago...it aint any better...

 

Yeah sounds like PE delay to me. Are you tuned at all? If you aren't you need one badly.

 

no tuning at all. I got a trifecta dealer 25 min from me, i just need to wait for some money, i just got called back to my job, but they hold the first 2 weeks so i wont see a pay cheque for a month lol

 

even when i was na with boltons i had no issues with the car.. it was always responsive.. and i live in humid ass texas

 

U guys are a bunch of ******* babys!!! You have a 2.4 n/a 4 cylinder what did you expect

 

i fail to see where or what would be causing heatsoak...no super...no turbo...wheres the problem?

 

for it to work properly? You either didnt read the entire post or are just too stupid to comprehend what was said, but the car DID NOT do this until recently, it didnt have a turbo or a supercharger for the last 2 years i have owned it and it did NOT do this.

You get it? Or will i have to repeat it again because you have the memory of a goldfish?

Well before it did this very briefly when i had that gay ass engine cover on it, as soon as i took that off it was perfect again until my last track visit where something happend on the last pass to cause it to act like it heat soaks 24/7

 

Your right, I've never owned or modded a LE5 before. i Obviously have no info on this subject. El oh el

 

you dont seem to have any, regardless of owning one before. Too high and mightly because you own a TC now, still a damn cobalt kid.

 

Yeah, you're feeling the PE Delay. Just get a tune and that should fix it.

 

Well... not completely hopefull just becuase in the 2 years ive owned the car, it hasnt done this, i dont see how a pe delay just suddenly occurs, or atleast becomes this noticeable

 

check the heat exchanger/IC pump... you wont really notice side effects in winter but when it starts gettign warm itll be very bad... prolly your intercooler pump is bad...

 

hes only a 2.4

how about maintenance? fuel filter, plugs, air filter?

you can definitely heat soak on an N/A...where your CAI or SRI becomes a HAI

do you notice a difference if you drive around for a bit at higher speeds?

 

Fuel filter and plug were done last summer. New air intake was put in febuary, K&N intake.

Well a tune help take away the effects of this?

 

yes...PE delay takes effect up to around 3k RPMs

then at around 4500 RPMs the VVT kicks in

a tune will allow full power from a dead stop instead of limiting until 3k RPMs

 

Until? No mine doesn't start boggin till 3k lol. Was testin it today, around 2800rpm it loses power till about 3800-4000rpm then the power comes back

And again, nobody can seem anwser why this wasn't an issue for the first 2 years

 

ive noticed mine is doing it as well.. its really bad hear in jersey.. wayy too much humidity

 

Wow it's the kids like you that have ruined this site!! It's retards like you that shouldn't even be aloud here. Next your your going to start a thread on how you cant get your neon underglow lights to work right. Just burn your car and go get a civic so you can start threads there about how vtec is not kicking in you waste of life

 

i shouldnt be? i have an issue with my car and you just make fun of the motor, give no usefull help and your telling me i shouldnt be allowed?

Your a ******* idiot.

If you have nothing useless to contribute then stay the hell out of the thread. Ive owned the car 2 years, it did not have this issue until recently, so explain how your first comment in this thread did **** all?

Is it because you turbo'ed your ss you think your god now? Theres thousands of much better and faster cars then yours out on the road so get your head out of your ass.
