problems with turbo crx
i need help with my turbo setup that ive built for my crx. i started it up and it idles like ----. the idle is very lumpy and there is knocking and rattling sounds from around the distributor. i assumed that it was the shitty tune that my buddy was using on the ecu that i borrowed.. i went to a different friend for help and he burned his tune on my chip. his tune runs a little better but my check engine light is on now, which it wasnt before, and the computer is flashing the ECU code for the crank angle sensor (code 9). my buddy`s car runs really good so im not understanding where my shitty idle is coming from . im running dsm 450`s with turbo edit. before the installing the turbo kit i did a head gasket and timing belt on the engine. the car ran really good and it did not flash the crank angle sensor code. this is the first turbo kit that ive built and i dont really know where to start to begin figuring out the problem . im thinking that maybe i have a bad injector...but the guy who i bought them off of told me that they had been cleaned and flow tested. i dont know what it could be and how to fix it . hopefully someone has had the same problem and can help me out.

It could be anything be more descriptive. your timing belt install may be a tooth off or something. Did you do an obd conversion? mpfi conversion..you have to let us know that stuff to help you...Oh yeah POST **** NOW!!!!!!!!!! And pics of the car.

Re: problems with turbo crx
you should check the injectors again maybe borrow your friends if his are 450's because i had a similar problem with my setup which was the injectors that i bought from some guy that said they were working perfect.
