By the way, with any OBD1 ECU, you can disable the knock sensor in the tuning software, then you won't get a CEL or have any limp home mode problems. It doesn't sound like you've actually had the car tuned, and you've got a fairly extensive mod list, so you should go get it tuned before you complain about it not running right.

Re: ls vtec is ghey
thanks for the replies i would have got it tuned but everything has only 120 miles on it. the motor isnt even broke in yet. this is my d.d. and im not trying to blow the shit up. but yea its a ls vtec so itll blow up anyway. would you get it tuned with only 100 miles on the motor? im starting to regret the day i took my plain ol ls out.

Re: ls vtec is ghey
see my sig
If the tune is off yes a motor can run like complete poo. Sometimes basemaps run the car alright and sometimes the car will barely even run.
