I am fairly new to this car (and forum) which is a track focused ep3 that I purchased, I developed an issue whilst on track this week and wanted some advice.
Whilst at Brands I noticed that as the day went on the car was bogging down after exiting Druids hairpin, the car would momentarily lose power one, two or three times. It then happened on other parts of the track but Druids was the worst and the most consistent.
It had been down as low as 1/4 tank just before lunch, we decided to fill it to the brim and try again, but with no joy.
I had a go pro recording at the time and have time stamped the events
3:18, 4:20, 5:28, 6:53 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSjSqGYAzhs&li...
Last run with a full tank: time = 1:58 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMwwUn8LLGk&li...
Relevant info:
track temperature ~ 28 degrees
2003 ep3
Hondata Kpro - I am trying to connect to it to see if it has any codes stored. According to hondata iPhone app it has no codes but I am still trying via a windows laptop to connect.
Uprated air intake - cone variety located towards the back of the engine bay (this is on the list to change)
Uprated radiator (seems to work well according to the dash thermostat)
I would appreciate some ideas as too where to look as I have another track day booked for the end of this month. My own thoughts were to check and possibly change the fuel filter and pump, earth strap from the fuel rail. I have checked for codes and nothing is displayed.
ps go easy on the comments re my driving skills ;-)
