i deff will look into that, thank you!
Car keeps dying out on me, need help
Okay so i have a 09 civic si on cte blower, grams tb, skunk 2 cai, on 1000cc injectors
So my car runs but after driving for a little bit( no more than 20 minutes) it just dies, if i push the throttle i can hear my throttle body opening, powersteering is still on , but as soon as my rpms hit 1k thats when the engine shuts down. And then i would have to wait for a while to start her back up and repeat this process, if i try to start my car too early, it would crank but not start.
i put in a new alternator, battery, cleaned my grounds to my valve cover, trans, battery, fuel injectors, and fuel pump. I swapped out spark plugs as well.
I noticed that my fuel pressure dont last as long anymore, it would used to hold 70 psi for a while after i shut my car off but now it goes down super fast after i shut it down, could my fuel pump be the issue?? This is my current daily so some fast help would be greatly appreciated!

So i swapped out my ecu but the problem persistsI once had an old car, not a Honda, that - all of a sudden - would only run for 20 minutes, die, and then not start again for twenty minutes. Had to drive 300 miles like that. Turned out to be a bad engine control unit. The old heap ran fine after replacing it. The symptoms you describe seem similar.
HTH!
