why dont u change back to smt6? Did it do this before when u had the smt6? U got a crower stage 2? Best check the piston 2 valve clearances, might be a tuning possibility also take the car to someone that knows honda boet. Junaid or shamieg just a suggestion?

@as

xplain this "valve bouncing", and what makes u think its the valves in the 1st place? If u valves are hitting the pistons, u will hear the metal sound of the 2 parts touching. I know this cos my dad threw 93 unleaded in my car and i could hear this distinct sound on startup. And if this hitting was consistant u, i think u would have blow ur motor by now!

Btw, what petrol are u using and war the prob there on the previous ecu? Maybe u shud go to icarus and clay the motor in vtec to check clearances again? Was it previously making powa past the rpm u mentioned?
