Hello, my name is Joe. I am brand-new to this site/forum. I have a similar issue (loss of torque/power) I start my car up and it starts beautifully, idles at 1200 then drops reasonably quick to 900 or so. the motor is a rebuilt ka24de in a 92 coupe 5 speed. one issue IS resolved (which was) my intake cam timing was off a tooth, unbelievable difference making it right. BUT... i have a few issues, and only educated ideas for them, from what i'v read on these forums. my car runs rich for one thing, loses power randomly. it always does it before i get a temp reading on my gauge and it just struggles and struggles with the clutch all the way out then kicks right in to driving, then i switch to second and it feels like second isn't even there, get to 3rd and it drives. (just drives. no fun) The motor never has stalled out on me, idles good,... but when the car is actually running better than the poop it usually runs like (which is random and rare) i feel significant losses/gains in power throughout the power band. the most noticeable increase in power after climbing rpms is 50% throttle or more. after that mouthful let me tell you what it has and what it doesn't.
aem Cold air
ngk wires
pulstar capacitor plugs (13 a piece!!!)
header 4-2-1 design to a flow master (cat replacement) and 2 1/4 the rest of the way back to a dual tip muffler
brand new injectors
dual electric fans
new o2 sensor
complete emissions delete. including secondary butterflies delete.
so to just top off everything i know, timing is good, spark is good, its definitely getting fuel, and it gets air. I NEED HEEEELLLLPPP!!! porfavor?
