SpeedDemon Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 i was driving the 92 hatch today and got on it alittle bit and to my surprise i got a loud rush of air around 5000 rpm. almost like the exhaust pipes came loose. went home and checked the pipes and everything is snug..any idea of what this could be?

Zac's Civic Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 In the D16Z6 motor the V-tech switch over is at 4800rpm's are you sure it wasn't just that? Any new updates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamEj6 Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 (edited) o my god, this site has gone to sh!t. its a d16 moron, you wont hear vtec unless you have a pretty aggressive cam. and even still its not gonna be that noticeable. and its spelled vtec, not vtech.

SpeedDemon Posted May 31, 2009 Author Share Posted May 31, 2009 nope not VTEC. motor is stock....my guess is its the gasket on the exhaust manifold going bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zac's Civic Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Moron? Ok..? First off here a link to d-series motorshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_D_engine#D16_Series_Engines_.281.6_Liters.29 , second yes there is a vtec on a D16z6 Do you have a vtec solenoid on your car? if not well then there could just be a crack or the exhaust manifold gasket...
