Ill be the first to admit I know A LOT when it comes to honda motors but maybe some one can explain this to me. How is it the K20A3 is looked down upon in the K-series motor world yet i just did a few mods and im running 190hp with out forced induction. Every time i shift im getting flames up to 4th gear and stops spitting flames in 5th. Here are the mods I did:
Custom Y pipe Cold intake system (yes means i running a 2-1 intake pipe into my manifold)
4-1 stainless headers
megan test pipe
2.75inch exhaust pipe
5inch carbon fiber muffler
bosch platinum 2's
Castrol Synthetic 5w20
Lucas Synthetic oil stabilizer
K&N Oil Filter
New Stock injectors
Cams, valves, and springs are in mint condition. Can someone tell me what might be causing the flames?
BTW its a EP3 Civic SiR
