I'm just saying you don't know what you're talking about is all. If it fixed the problem you must have changed something else. Like "Boost limit" value. Or "boost cut delay timer". Ring a bell? It's in the same "Turbo" section as the tables you talk about.

I couldn't agree more! I just had the exact same problem about three weeks ago. I went through trouble shooting all the bolt ons and easy stuff. After I had restored the stock settings on the ecu and put most of the stock parts back on I was ready to check the cams and realized I hadn't checked my plug gap. The plugs were my problem! Check the gap and heat range first! Start at the easiest and work your way up. It might save you some wrench time.

Thanks Guys! Well im trying to get ahold of him now to see what he can do. As far as mod the car has a o2 Housing, Exhaust, Obx Intake, some knock off Greddy BOV and everything else is stock. Still running ecu boost and everything.

Personally i would never install the parts he chose to install but he is one of those hmmm how to say this...half *** guys i guess you would say. The car was running fine and then got in a pretty bad accident. It was then towed and fixed. Ever since the very first time it fired back up it has had this problem.

I will have him check the plugs!

Chris

I'll bet a lot of the issue is with that knock-off bov. They're not the greatest at holding higher pressures and can leak pretty bad. In my experience tuning Honda's with these garbage parts on them they usually let go right around the 12-13psi range, so it's very possible that his valve is leaking pretty badly causing it to run extremely rich (which in turn would lead to the misfire code) and might account for the strange looking air volume log as well. IMHO, he should really put a stock DV back on, either the original plastic one or a metal 9 valve until everything's sorted out.
