VTEC sounds different

[fn2au]

Renzo is a kunt

[Super-DA9]

Hi, I have a Civic FN2 Type R with the following mods.

Injen CAI
Invidia Catback

You should go check out the ULTIMATE FN2 build by moderator RenzokukenJ, it's crazier than a cheetah on meth

My vtec changes sound

Yeah that usually happens when you hit VTEK


sometimes it's crazy and more recently it sounds normal I guess.

Your car must be female


Is it the ECU fixing it self?

Try plugging in a laptop into the ECU with an OBD2 program, find the option for automatic fixing and turn it off. Your car will no longer fix itself and will remain broken when a part fails.


Cheers

No problem :thumbsup:

[RenzokukenJ]

What I like to do is just turn off vtec altogether, that way you don't have to deal with this problem

[Daveho1]

Dun joke bout car fixing itself, my stereo did it last week tum

[Slugman]

Sorry fn2au, I can't help you much apart from suggesting you get a decent workshop to check out your VTEC solenoid. The ECU may be trying to adjust, but VTEC may not be activating on the occasions when you notice a difference in the sound from before. If you have a Haynes manual, I think there is something in there about testing the solenoid, but I don't have one here to look at.

A shame this website has degenerated so much that long-term members think it's ok to flame people asking legit questions in the Noob section.
It's the main reason I don't come here much anymore. Too much rubbish to trawl through to find the snippets of decent info.
So there you go - Four replies to your question so far, & only one small piece of 'possibly' helpful info. Barely worth logging in, was it?

[fn2au]

Thanks for an actual reply, I've now learned not to post any questions on Ozhonda.

Cheers

[u mad?]

Either its all in your head or you're low on oil not letting your big cam to 'engage' .

[fn2au]

It engages fine, I can even stay neck and neck with my friends DC2R and I even pull on him after 140. It just sounds crazier at times.

Could be IAT's, as in when it gets warm out, you're ecu will compensate by retarding timing/ adding fuel, don't know how much this would effect the actual sound of the car. You say you have a injen cai, so its actually a cai? as in your filter is out of the engine bay and behind a bumper ect?

Again man, i think its all in your head, just getting used to the car.

[fn2au]

Thanks for the help, but ever since I put the Invidia catback on that's when the vtec started changing sound. (Should've mentioned that earlier).

Cheers

[Super-DA9]

No offence but if you walk into a workshop and ask them why your "VTEC doesn't sound as crazy" sometimes, they'll probably laugh lol.

There are way too many variables and it's not something you should be concerning yourself with if your car is performing fine. Sorry if a bit of humour has offended you but questions like these are bound to attract some sarcasm.

Welcome to ozhanda hehe

[Super-DA9]

This.

[cbauto]

Who's done the MOD that swaps indicators to the left and wipers to the right?

[amant02]

Exhaust leak?

Wat I do is spray soapy water while everything is cool. Then turn it on.

Soak the connecting ends. If it bubbles up its leaking. Has not failed me yet in a boost leak diagnoses.

But in the real world I reckon whats going on, is intake temps changing.

When its colder any car will sound and feel much more powerful and more responsive.

Specially with his mods.

[RenzokukenJ]

Maybe his bbk is changing the way the car behaves

Specially with his mods. while that would work exhaust leaks worth noting are usually heard or evidance of the leak I.e carbon build up are the typical ways to diagnose a exhaust leak but hey amant haven't you only had your subaru for like a second, how many boost leaks have you needed to go finding?

Im saying environmental conditions are the culprit especially since there's no lack of power complaint

[Daveho1]

I think this might be correct, it will at least stop "his brother" crashing his car aye

[cbauto]

Spray soapy water on exhaust. Right

Guess this potato never heard of evaporation

[connorling]

has to be blinker fluid low

[amant02]

Lmao. Alrite guises.

Yea water evaporates when the exhaust is cool room temp.

Yea carbon build up is another way.... but if the exhaust is new...... alrite mate ur really smart.

I have 2 boost leak problems(I've upgraded intercooler setup few times), FYI I've owned my car for 11 months and 23 days.

In that time I have only put decals in my car and posted a build thread about them stickers. Fully sick cuz.


Only making 2.4 times factory power in that 11 months of owning. Fk my car is not a build. Grocery getter.

[amant02]

Ladies and gentlemen once again I give you the shit kunt talkers from ozhonda. With their knowledge beyond reputable.

[Daveho1]

lel butt hurt much? Sorry your cars so leaky mate.

[amant02]

Na not hurt. Just putting shitkun75 in their place with their shitbox cars.

[Daveho1]

Pretty sure ur butt hurt, also can I get a link to your build here?

[amant02]

It was there car wasn't it? Be honest
you shouldn't give up amant, perseverance is an admirable trait but liying and being deceitful are not, I just want to help amant, make the lies and silliness stop.
You are only butthurting yourself.

[Daveho1]

Ozhonda should be renamed to Oztrolls. Fkn hell hahah.
It's okay I will ask Benjamin to make amant fuk off for you. Your experiance here should not be sullied by Subaru enthusiasts who can't find ozfoz in Google.

[cbauto]

At least you have an ECU that fixes itself
