just wanted some opinions...my car started idling different when i had the hondata put on and the p28 ecu conversion...it was fluctuating every now and then but not all the time. then i installed a stage 2 crower camshaft and now it's even worse. i understand that the idle is kinda strange with a bigger camshaft but why is it fluctuating or sometimes on the first time i start it for the day, it starts and then shuts down right away (coz the idle goes too low for it to keep running).

hope i can get some help. thanks!

thats normal, its called an idle lope. you need to adjust the idle at the throttle body by pulling the cable a bit more so it idles higher so it doenst stall.

It could also be really bad....I know some kids that put a cam gear and a cam on a 6th gen ex and when he brought it back to me and my friends we were like wtf who did this....And we let him go for a week but then wee took the s**t apart and they didnt put the cam in right and they didnt lube it right b4 they put it in so we went over to the people house and got in a fight over it....Be very carefull if we let him drive it anylonger than when we stoped him his eng would be fryed so take it to some one asap... better safe than sorry :twocents:
