Do we have a TPS??? With the DBW doesn't that eliminate the TPS??? I need to find a 5v output at WOT anyone know where I can find one in the engine bay somewhere??? HELP!!!

 

Uh oh what are you up to stoke?















Do I smell nitrous?

 

No TPS but we have the APS (Accelerator Position Sensor) which connects to the gas pedal cable. It's kind of like the TPS but not sure about voltage output.

 

told you I have a secret weapon..... just wait and see.
Can someone find out if there is a 5v output from the APS????? PLEASE anyone have a manual????

 

ok at WOT APS puts out 4.5v hmmm might be enough muahaha

 

sweet.. =P

 

Have you tried using a rpm switch to activate the nitrous?

 

hmm i would think there would be a thing for the car to know when its at 6000 rpm to switch up the vtech, tho it might be all computerized now that i think of it.

 

nitrous huh

pushin the poor tsx to the limit

 

 

its not about RPM its about WOT (wide open throttle) I have never used nitrous before its all new to me. I am tryin to figure out how to install it on the TSX. I am not gonna be using alot. Just a small shot to jump me up over 220 whp and over 215 tq. Low 14's here I come...

 

Will the stock ECU add more fuel or do you have a way around that?

 

its all a secret Dan...When I get it all done I will post details. HEHE I been tellin you guys I have a secret weapon...who said it was the nitrous that was the secret????

 

well there is one secret out in the open

 

Oh ya? Well I've been working on a J32 swap

 

hehe...=) I won't get it all done at once but if I get it I will have fun with it.

 

Johnny question do you have a helms manual for the TSX?

 

Yes, I do. Every TSX owner should have one.

 

hope you reinforce the block before you try to shoot nitrous through it.

 

The Kseries blocks are stronger than B series. The K24A2 which is what we have is the strongest...structurally speaking. It can take it. What your saying is like telling a guy to build a block for a comptech supercharger and minimum boost. It will take it as long as you dont over do it. And dont worry I know how to not over do it. Now if I could just find the wire that gives out that output...Jtso gimme a hand here lol...on the wiring I found the APPS...now which wire is it there is like 5 of them....

 

Just cut the red wire. No, the blue wire! LOL ...


j/k let me look it up later.

 

ok thanks cuz there is a red wire and a yellow with red and some others lol

 

if you're going to do a turbo someday you might as well get a helm's manual

 

nitrous and turbo = uh oh

:troutslap

 

nitrous + turbo + k-pro = uh oh

 

nitrous + turbo=

but someone has to to try it and i think we have some smart people here!

 

Okay Stoke, give this a try...

Locate the APP sensor on the firewall and remove the black cover. The APP sensor has a 5-pin connector. Connect a digital meter's negative lead to pin 6 (green/white) sensor ground. Connect the positive meter lead to pin 4 (red/blue) sensor input to ECU. Turn on power but don't start the engine. Rotate the APP cam and note the voltage readout on the meter. HTH

 

what k pro?

 

Thanks Johnny I'll try it when I get the chance...This weekend I am installing the header. So maybe next weekend I will try the Nitrous. And no Dzuy I wont stay nitrous...I will be switching to turbo. I just want to try it since I never have. Once the Kpro comes out I will be turbo charged with a built motor...I will try and put down 400 whp and at least 320 tq. Thats the goal bro. Lets see if I can get it. And NO I won't be boosting on that level daily...probably run 10 psi daily and 16 at the track.

 

thats cool. too bad when you get turbo the header is useless.

oh well, if you got money to get a built motor and a turbo, you prob dont care about losing a few hundred bucks on the header.

you could probably resell on the forum anyway.

 

Well the turbo is waiting on a Kpro..that will be at least 18 months away. So I figure I might as well get the header now and have more power while I wait you know? I put it on here and ebay and see what happens when i do get rid of it. But with the nitrous and the slkjhsdfkgflhe (secret) The heasder should help

 

did you get the turbonator?



haha

:troutslap

 

lol what the hell is a turbonator? And obviously no I didnt get that thing what ever it is. What I am going to do is something that has never been done or talked about in this forum there is your clue. I am not saying im going to get it done now or anytime soon. But I am researching it at this time. And am very much considering it as a mod.

 

oohhh snap hes gunna get some elves to make the TSX faster

 

OH MY GOD how did you know...hehe.

 

i am da shiznit

 

Wow the shiznit?

 

Don't know if you already posted the answer to this, but what header are you going with? Curious to know.

 

DC...better bang for the buck. Used them before on my integra and civic. Never had a problem. I tack welded the seem on the flex pipe to the flange so I should be ok and not have any of the breakage problems that others have had. You can say I am pretty much anti comptech when it comes to I/H/E...power for $$$ isn't worth it with their products. The SC might be ok though we will see when a dyno comes out.

 

man, i really gotta get a helms manual....does anybody have a collection of scans from it they could post?
