ok I just recently replaced the head gasket on my d16
and now when I drive the car It gets good low and mid rpm power but nothing up top,, I mean It will accelerate and get up to around 7200 but it takes a good min..
Yes I am firing on all 4
No I dont have a hole in my exhaust..
It sounds just like a WRX..
could timing being off cause this.. I dont have a timing light , but I just did it the way I thought was right. I took out spark plug # 1 and placed a metal rod on the top of the piston and rotated it to TDC, The cam was in "up" postion.. Am i missing something?
