Well guys i am back again...i have everything set up now...I put in the cold air intake tube that was designed for the civic and have the k+n filtercharger kit on as well...but it is now about a month later and i am starting to notice problems...my main noticable prob. right now is when i dedcide to give my car more gas...i accelerate harder, and i reach about three and a half grand and my engine cuts in and out...almost like you can hear a poping backfire up front...i dunno if i am getting to much air in the mixture or what the deal is...i would like to know b/c this car is my life blood right now and i need it working...any help would be appreciated...thanx

haven't taken the time to take it in as of yet...that would be the most obvious answer, but being a poor right out off college student doesn't help the issue...anyhow i will prolly budge and just take it in...but before i do any possible answers?

Autozone will pull the codes for free, that'l make a good starting point.
