SR20 DET problem

[gary g]

Its a Japspeed stainless mani. its gets unbelieveably hot in less than a minute.... cannot understand it

I would of said block cat or some sort of restriction in the exhaust but youve stated the cat is off, make sure theres no blockage, and recheck your timing could be a few teeth off ,Could probably pull a diagram from somwhere for the timing mark settings if you want.

Its worth a try but if the exaust is blocked or restricted it would choke its self or not start.
The cas unit on the side has to be aligned correctly before its bolted up and as said get a timing strobe,
What fuel reg is it? If its adjustable and someone has messed with it?

Cheers for the comments lads, was talkin to a fella last night and he said its definatly ignition timing. The CAS is the problem, not adjusted correctly so im told. Im gonna have a go at it tomorrow evenin and see how i go.

When you set the timing, did you use the little black wire at the back of the engine or did you put a lead between coil pack and spark plug? My timing light went way off when I used the black wire method
