B20 Vtec NA And TurboCharged Boosted Honda Civic Dyno Tuning Hondata Crome 

Yes Honda’s Honda’s Honda’s! I enjoy the Honda content way more than anything else! Hope all is well Hunter!

If the car isn't ready to tune. Turn it away. Have a basic pre dyno check list. Take 10-20 to look at the car before it gets strapped down. Pass no pass. What you are doing is hard. Good luck bud. Your time is worth more.

I know this video is 2 years old but I had this exact same problem and I figured it out! I literally did everything that he just did and more. It didn't make sense. People kept saying change the o-ring on the center cam cap but not one person says anything about the two small pins that hold in the 2 long dowels that the rockers are riding on. Those two small pins lock them in place and have some threads inside that a bolt from a distributor cat fits into so you can pull them out. Anyway after the 20th time disassembling my head and pulling those out I changed them for the hell of it and everything worked perfect after that. FeeTech engaged harder than ever. Those two o-rings hold a lot of the pressure trying to lock in the rockers. Hope this helps somebody because I looked and looked and I could not find anybody who had this issue resolved. So just replace both of those o-rings and do the center o-ring while you're at it and you will be good to go. I bought them from Honda for a total of $15. VTEC is back in better than ever

You a really nice guy. But you can't keep letting these customers stress you you out. Have a dyno check list like how humble performance does it. Great vids btw

Keep honda content coming! D series build!

You can't take the weight of the world on your shoulders man, good job on knowing when to say when btw.

This is what gets me motivated to get my hatch back together 👍

I started using Fueltech a few years ago and never looked back. Nothing can compare imo

love the way how u explain everything good job

hey when your talking in 36.28 i feel you on that man you just got a good heart trying to help everyone dont change who you are keep on doing you man i wish you the best the world could use more people like you take care and keep up the good work

What a healthy B20VTEC can't wait too get mine built up

Love the long videos love the Honda content

B20V EK, is a mid 12 sec car gutted with 212 whp. Definitely a great street race car. I love anything B series Honda Content. I own a semi built B20VTEC EJ1 myself. Been watching your channel for awhile now.

Yes some Honda content, great video you Honda content be the best on RU-vid. I watch your Honda content first then Brent right after.

Coming from a guy who owns a foxbody and a ek hatch, I like your content and the honda stuff is more of my favorite. I am a born ford guy I must mention

Mr hunter tuned focus in what u can do and what gives you Money. without too much stress just explain and let the owner of any car that you can't be dealing with too many issues with a car in the dyno they need it fix and bring them back. Communication is the key

Wow..I feel ya. Soon your gonna need to hire a mechanic to fix issues like that on the side while you get other cars on the dyno and out lols.

Keep it up bro ur doing great hope everything can work out smoother for you bud. I have a turbo d series I'm finishing up would love to see you do a D Series Build!!!

Maybe it could be a flow issue. Still like you said, that 1/8th inch hole may have the pressure but maybe not the flow as if it was coming from a sandwhich plate. We always ran into issues like this at my job. Anyways, keep kicking ass man! Always enjoying the content!

@huntertuned love the long videos and especially the Honda content. Glad to hear you are feeling better and back to it! I can’t find a good Honda for sale either-everything is beat,rusted and super overpriced.

Would like to see you build a awd Honda the way you explain things and record every thing could help a lot of us understand the whole awd conversion

Cya friday in my integra brother got u some honda content. !!

I'm sure we all enjoy the long videos bro

I gotta prelude you can have. Fully rebuilt engine top to bottom. Every sensor and hose and vacuum lines done. All new gaskets and fluids.

love it keep it up!

Can't wait to bring in my eg hatch for a dyno tune!

You really are a good dude, but you are absolutely right, you have to draw the line somewhere on mechanical repairs when it’s in for a dyno tune, especially a big problem that you shouldn’t have to be dealing with,,, or if the customer wants you to deal with it, the money it takes for it to become your problem should substantially increase to make it worth it, either way, don’t stress about it bro, but you can’t give your time away either. Good luck on it!

Another vote for the honda content!

It could still be the o-ring under the cam cap. Could be flattened to the point the pressure pushes oil into the head instead of pushing it into the valve train. You've tracked the pressure all the way to the solenoid. No way to tell what it is once it hits the o-ring. I agree with having a checklist that needs to be set and checked prior to strap down. Or it's known that the time spent fixing a problem comes with an hourly fee. If you don't value your time nobody else will. Helping to fix a problem is great way to spread the word that you're knowledgeable and personable. There isn't anything wrong with that. Just don't feel like you have to. You're good at what you do because you put the time in to learn, that has a value and it's worth something.

Ohhh man I hope you get a clean honda from out of state 🤞 I still got the integra man but I have so much to learn im not quite ready for a huntertune

Great video. If the car is not ready for tune after you preliminary safety inspections, ie… oil, timing, coolant. I think one hour Diag time at customers expense, is reasonable. After that they need to either repair the issues or know they are paying shop rate. You can’t go broke for their inability to get the car ready.

I hear ya on “no Honda’s for sale”. I’m trying to get a spare d16y8 with 5 speed and can’t find a used or pulled setup locally here (Detroit suburbs), and shipping is stupid. Great channel.

Yesss

Hunter tuned bro! I love the videos I binge these during work and love em! How much do you charge for a tune ?

Hey just take it easy just learn how to say no keep up the good work man

Cool video

Definitely miss the Honda videos

I’ve been watching your videos for a while and could not figure out who you look like until now you look like Steven Crowder!

Best to fix/investigate while the memory is fresh. Try replacing vtec solenoid and/or ecu. Hope it's not the oil pump failing. Could use more on-site helpers as some may see something that others missed.

You should have a check list for each customer before tune and if there is issues tell them to come back when they fix there issues first

I just put together a B20v with a type r head (non turbo). Im dealing with the same issues. Im lost to what it could be, i was hoping you figured it out. But man I feel your pain on this one. Ive tried everything but taking it for a tune. if i figure it out ill let you know

Did you ever figure it out?? I'm no tuner yet but as a mechanic I've seen a couple different solutions for these issues. This is a basic point of view btw but it may help #1 issues for Hondas in the shop I work at is usually vtecs, but when it came to modified Hondas with altercations to their intake system their vtecs would act up. What I've noticed is that usually beefy ignition helps a lot, having turbo and what not needs that spark gap a lot shorter, a good strong spark, spark plug tester would help, you can observe spark physically as you pull, it could also be the wires. No matter the fueling, if that ignition isn't strong it won't budge, that's why when people say take fueling out it'll likely work which equals weak ignition system. By the sound of it, I believe the vtec did work before, so oil pressure is good to know. The other thing is check the viscosity of the oil and all that good stuff The other thing is the auto parts stores and cheap vtecs are likely on the no good end in my opinion, usually oem even used oem saves honda lives lol Ik I'm late, better than never Just started watching your content, I like it. Keep on!

Awesome video !!! Are you still selling the decapped GM injectors ?

Hell yeah man making some jam! Beem deciding on boosting my junkyard built LS eg coupe. Yeah that LS not the cool LS lmao.

My money was on the o ring seal. Haha.

awsome job man. i used coolant pressure sensors it tels me if head is lifting

I got a sweet 94 gen 3 CRX w B16A2 but it is in Australia, are you up for it shipped?? Awesome vid too Hunter keep up the good work mate.

Dude I feel it. My dump truck boss leaves for flordia all winter. I'm a driver I cant fix anything stop asking me to!! just because I am mechanically inclined.

I'd like to just try another ECU on it if you can. And as you said check all the lash. Have you tried lowering vtec to a different rpm? Anything to help my man. Also your time on the Dyno is your labour price. I get it being self employed wanting to do everything for the customer. Love you dude ☮️

Would love to see a Boosted Accord for new content, F to B or H to B.

RSX type s would be a good one to get. K20a2.

Wow, what a title. That outta get the algorithm going smh 👍🏼

If I were to build a honda I'd make sure I could find or have a dog box or really strong trans befire i bought another Honda. since that's what stops most from going further with power and drag racing you know beating the breaking point and then some

It’s probably the center oring under the cam cover.

I just bought your primer gray hatch you have videos of.

Add 30% to your hourly rate for fixing pre existing issues on cars when there for a tune only..Stick by it, it’s a business..Niceness and business is a very fine line.

472nd from the UK.

More Hondas plz

👍

There is one for sale at Arkansas nwa for 1k with b20 nitrous not pretty but for the price

If ur just tuning then ur just tuning u gotta ship em if they ain't ready to be tuned.

huntertuned there's a shit load of eg ek hatch for sale down here in Florida FYI ... lmk wat you need ?

You have a Facebook page? An also what kind of tuners you've work with!

Dude flow the injectors! I'm watching this video now thinking the injectors would be efficient for all motor but when he boosted it its probably not get sufficient fuel during crossover if using the same injectors? I would start flowing injectors before a tune.

I have to wonder if it’s the Hondata update. I keep having issues with my car hitting vtec. Same exact thing! Sputters and misfires like if the dizzy took an L or the timing belt jumped. Only when vtec is supposed to kick in. Someone else had the same issue... I want to say it was a car pfi was tuning.

hey @huntertuned check in the head there is a plug where the dizzy goes into the head its in the corner of the head and sometimes cant be seen or overlooked because oil puddles over top it and can make it hard to see. its litterally below the were the cam and the dizzy meet. i myself just recently had my motor refreshed and the machinist took that plug out to clean it and it had the same exact symptoms oil pressure good , vtec was coming on but not functiioning in the map and falling on its face., i hope you see this and if it does help please let me know would be kinda cool if that was the fix.

The b20vtec blowing coolant out the exhaust?

First yheaaaaaa

Just throwing ideas out there but does the speedometer work? Most likely if the speedometer is not working or faulty vss then vtec will not engage...just a thought? Hope you figure it out, keep the content coming 👌

My car ecu won't fire up d1 connection has no power what could be the problem

Rpm signal? Ignitor?

Bro I know yall rollin with hondata but i need help with th HTS for a D series setup tune

My b16 crx has a very similar issue. Vtec worked perfectly fine before I put my eBay kit on, and now if I have vtec enabled on the s300 as soon as it’s supposed to cross over it feels like boost cut; it just hits a brick wall basically. I never took it to a tuner because I wanted to try and fix it first but no luck. Ended up cracking a sleeve ripping around untuned, swapped blocks, left the kit off, vtec works fine again. I want to put the kit back on and get it tuned but I don’t want to waste my tuners time if he can’t figure it out.

Ope...Did vtec actually work..we will never know till the head comes off.

What compresion is he running ?

How much do you charge for a chip ecu I have a B20 VTEC B16 head Skunk2 Ultra Street manifold mishimoto thermostat racing mishimoto fan switch I'm about to put DSR cams into the motor so how much did you charge to send a check I will pay you to cash out on Zelle whatever you prefer and I have a 70 mm throttle body up to it also

You need some help brother!! Hope u find someone to join the hunter tuned team to take some of the load off your back. We would all like to know if u find the fix as well

So did he ever figure out what the issue was?

213 on pump or e85?

I got my EK coupe for 1600 bucks with a chipped and tunes p28

Did you ever figure out what the issue was I have the exact same problem

wonder if the head is tapped/plugged correctly for the b20v? would cause these issues, rockers aren't getting enough oil to lock.

In my prelude H23A swap

Does anyone know what rims are on the hatch?

where are you located?

Maybe the oil pick up is clogged.

Make sure the turbo has an old restrictor, if it doesn’t that could be the vtec issue. Low oil pressure.

What’s your info need a tuneup

dude wisconsin sucks ass far as the honda seen goes. I was looking for a del sol and it took me two years to find one. Then not one but two. So just had to buy it cuz of location. So now i have two turds in the yard that need lots of help. Im glad to see some honda content. Just keep your eyes peeled.

Hunter i need a GSR distributor. Do you have one you could sell me? I'll pay handsomely. Keep kickin ass brother. Also can I send my ecu to you and have a base map put on it? 👊🤘

california have hella hondas gonna suck when i move out of cali

How much to tune a turbo d16y8 running hondata s300 ?

Damn how many ads

I bet you wont sleep as usual after record this video ..me at my garage #@£%√÷•×√${^ when it happen until 8am

Anything bigger then 15’s just don’t look right on the 92-95 model personal preference

Not many tuners help with mechanical. Dime a dozen. I understand the business side though.

That’s what happens when you work on shit boxes, egay setups, backyard build budget guys. How you gonna tune if you gotta fix their shit?? Tell them man.

Check out my eg coupe via Facebook man.. im about to freak that car out

Why does VTEC always have to be emphasized. Every automobile has some form of variable timing technology. FREEVALVE will be the future.

Weak ignition coil
