vtec problem?

[sakitumi]

hey guys i got a b16 in my em1 and every time i hit vtec it cuts out around 8.2k rpm? is that normal or would there be something wrong?

it feels like i loose power then let go of accelerator and it goes back to normal?

so does vtec cut out at a certain RPM or it can keep going?


any info would be great

are you trying to rev it passed the redline?

[EKVTIR-T]

not sure if serious

[sakitumi]

yes i am trying to, but if i was to go past red line it wouldnt cut out? would just bounce? cause it feels like a full loss in power.

You are hitting fuel cut...ofcourse you are going to stop making power lol

There's nothing wrong with the car, just the driver

jks

But srsly, your car is fine

[sakitumi]

okay is fuel cut slandered with the ecu??

strong potato man

i could only see it bouncing off redline if you had a after market ecu with a limiter set for you at a safer RPM

say for your example, 8k

but you do not have, so hit dat fuel cut which is saving your engine from potatoing into the ground

Spoon chip from EBAY will allow unlimited rpm but will probably blow engine

have seen it happen,young lad revs over9000 on b16 daily and BANG
