You put 4 inch piping on a naturally aspirated engine? Are you retarded? Congratulations, you're officially slower then stock.

Anything bigger then 2.25 inch on N/A will result in power loss. Back pressure has nothing to do with it. It has to do with pulse tuning, which you've now effectively destroyed.

But to answer your question, which has been covered many times, your idle is turned down too low. To fix it all you have to do is use the search button to get the answer.

lol 4"!! WOW RICE-A-RONI!

Thats awesome, did you put a bunch of folgers coffee tins together?

Serious, accel's right, you have to make sure to put yourself back to at MAX for an n/a engine 2.5". And that's only if you have aftermarket cams and all the bolt ons. If not, 2.25" will be just fine.

PS if you do go more than 2.5" you'd better have a VVL

Thanks for the laugh, that was great.

your car FTW:

the guy that I got the car was retarded. I traded my honda for the s13.
came with the sr20det and right hand drive, front Silvia conversion, rims, toyo tiers, stage 3 clutch and a few other things in it.

While 4" is overkill even for a boosted sr20, it's not causing your problems, and you can tell your friend that turbo engines don't 'need' backpressure.

I'm going to take a wild ass guess and say that your bov isn't recirculated. If not, that's your problem.

How about some engine bay pics, it'll help us get a feel for what we're working with here.

And please loose the CAPS LOCK and bold text, it makes you look juvenile.

no such thing as too big of an exhaust on a boosted car imo

less backpressure=more top end power

This is in a 240?

If so, it doesn't matter if the BOV is recirculated or not. It will run fine. His idle is turned down too low. Unplug the TPS and turn the screw out till it idles at 1,000. Wait 15 seconds or so and plug the TPS back in. It'll take the ECU a couple miles to learn then your needle will be rock solid.

My friends Sr-powered 240 had the exact same problem and it vents to atmosphere and is also draw-through. That's all I had to do to it to fix it.

technically there is no difference if it was a 240 or a FWD

because of where the maf is located on a blow through set up, having an open bov will cause some drivability problems

Yeah, I know the technicalities of it. But I've never seen an SR in a 240 that's draw/vented run badly. I can't explain why, cause I know it should run rich and want to die from venting metered air.
