Okay I have a 1998 GST. Has a Evo3 big 16g turbo punishment racing fmic turbosmart ultragate 38mm wastegate greddy bov 3" catlist downpipe full 3" hks exhaust ingen intake dsmlink innovative wideband fully tuned competition stage 2 clutch and competition stage 2 flywheel 2 row radiator and fan. And much more to list.
First off I just want to let all of you guys know. That I am very mechanically inclined and have a lot of knowledge doing automotive work. I specialize in Honda's and can build them from the ground up. And have built several 10 sec track cars. Just to give you a little background on me so you know your not talking to a complete idiot who knows nothing. Lol. This is my first 2G.
Okay so here is my issue. When I am driving at a normal speed shifting at a normal RPM without building much boost at all. For example like your driving on a normal road going 50mph. The car runs and shifts fine. But when I step into and I go let's say over 4000 RPM and it starts to build boost. Somewhere under the hood makes a loud knocking or like something is loose noise. And the motor shuts off and the car loses all power completely. So I pull over an turn the key off and back on and the car starts and runs just like I explained. I've checked all boost leaks but since I hear that loud noise I've realized it's not that. And I thought it might be my timing belt but if the car started back up and runs fine then it's not that either. I was thinking maybe one of the pulley or a pump. Maybe a sensor or something in the head or block. Can someone lend some knowledge and give me any ideas please? Thanks!
