Since Koll = Crap, and cant make a full Post :

this is from an evo forum. The mods shut the thread down, so you can't see it, but someone on LS1tech.com managed to save page 1..

TITLE - car stalls around loud cars

Everytime im around muscle cars or stuff like that my car stalls. Its like my cars scared. what can I do to fix it besides taking it to the worthless mishi. people. whats causing it.

Open the hood while the car is running and tap on the top of the airbox; it will do the same or very similar.

I beleive that it has to do something with the MAS being very sensitive etc to certain frequencies.

i think it has to do with the knock sensor

you can't do anything. It's the knock sensor picking up the impact of the open exhaust, and thinking that the car is pinging. In turn it pulls timing to the point that the car stalls. FWIW Harley's with shotgun pipes can do it too. The only way to get around it would be to reduce the sensitivity of the knock senor or bypass it alltogether, and I wouldn't recommend that.

Well Im sure then the mystery is solved.

haha. i'm sorry, but this cracks me up. i can imagine some old skool mustang or camero wanting to race... "sorry, i can't. my car is too scared of your car."

Your intake is causing the problem.

lolololol ^

oooohhhhhh! now i know why my car's idle dips around loud a$$ bikes and muscle cars. when it happend i was like wtf, i didn't let go of the clutch, i thought it was my dumba$$

hahahaha, the way you said it was funny! man, that sucks!!

yeah my car has done it to from my buddies turbo civic. He has open DP and he pulled up next to me and reved and my car almost stalled I was like WTF. At leastI know its normal.

It's definitely the knock sensor. It happened to me next to a harley once. It happens if you slam the hood while idling too.

yea i was at the beach for a classic car cruise there was TONS of cars. It doesnt stall much but it just acts scared lol. Allright thats cool just tryin to fix it but o well

This is too funny. Please don't let this thread get out to the muscle car guys. We will never hear the end of it!


THIS IS JUST THE FIRST PAGE...THAT'S ALL I COULD GET.

Cliffnotes : A Lancer Evo's Nock Sensor in the Intake, picks up loud idles of other objects (loud muscle cars, motorcycles) as excess nock, so the it retards the timing, or even to the point where the car will shut off.

So pull up to an Evo, and open your cut-outs, or rev the **** out of your car :twisted:

HAHA lmao, that is ****ing GREAT... now i know what to do when i see an evo, considering im still running around with stock manifolds and wide open off road y pipe, someday ill install my cat back again. :lol:

Must pick on them now ;)

[sikbyrd350]

<---don't try it with this EVO, it won't work, my buddies and I tried already. It only happens on stock/mild modded w/ no custom tune EVO's. It also only happens below 1400RPM's. It's may be the knock sensor, or the MAF may be overly sensitive to vibrations. No one is really sure yet. For some reason an AEM is a simple fix, $1400, but a simple fix none the less.(simple fix good for 50hp to the wheels)

BTW, Koll, what took so long to find this one? Usually you're on top of this stuff, not a few weeks behind.

then please wear some pampers next time I drive. I know 335whp isn't a big f-body number, but around corners, it's a whole different story.

[12secondv6]

335 WHP is pretty damn bad ass!

Well, when I find things, I usually save them so I can post them at different times. That way we dont have a lounge of Koll threads

I don't get it. You're refering to the cars that stumble when revved next to(EVO's), calling them POS's. EVO's come with 276bhp, not 125. Now I'm not arguing the fact that this is a MAJOR design flaw, I'm just saying according to you, 125hp, fart can imports suck(i agree), but mine is cool, even though it's an EVO(who at 1 point would shut down when revved next to). WTF? :knock:

[ar0ck]

Ooh Ooh I got a video!

It took a BBC & Sprayed Drag Camaro to beat this Evo!

I <3 Evo's I want one in the worst way to park next to my camaro.

Clear Intakes are rice :?:

funny thing how broad and stupid your statement is. i have friends with "stupid ricer cvics" and multiple other import cars with and without turbos that will destroy your car. and some that will beat any car on this forum....

its always funny that the people with fast cars can respect any make and model that someone chooses to build, as long as it is quality and classy work....but those with average to below average cars are the ones that hate all imports and act how their car is god.........

[PDubs87Z28]

you guys are bugging out.....i wasn't saying **** about his car i was just saying his car was cool BUT that the stalling out just show how its a piece of ***** has nothing to do with performance i was just saying how its a piece of **** (NOT YOUR EVO!) is how they(mitsubishi) built it like that....and i was stating that i hate imports with stupid ass homo exhaust and think they got the fastest car around....i have a friend like that and its f-ing gay....thats what i hate....do you undrstand what i am talking about now?!? has this made my statement clear? nothing on whos car is fastest....my car isn't ***** BUT it starts up and works, it has a few things wrong but its 18 years old.
