Civic EG

hey guy , my vti civic sounds like a scooby wrx , have checked the sparce plugs and HT lead and there all ok, the car runs perfecty tho , there's NO flat spots when i put my foot down Vtec kicks in fine , no running problem ,the car as been remapped n chipped ECU could have any thing to do with it ? cheers tom

one way to find out if its the ECU, swap a stock one in and see what happens

The sound of a suby gets me "excited"...

is your car stock? if not whats mods have you done.

if you have checked to make sure that all the connections on the leads are good, and there isnt a crack in the distributor cap and the rotor is fine, you may have water going into one of the cylinder, so to find out what one it is you start the car and start pulling leads. Possible things that are broken if thats the case... Intake gasket, intake itself where that water jacket is, head gasket....
