Dumb suggestion but could it be bad gas?
or maybe an injector fouled up? could also be a cam position sensor going bad or something. |

I’ve even had another shop check things and they didn’t find an issue. At this point I’d rather just pay someone stupid money to get it resolved. Quote:
Well right now it’s not tuned. But if I ever go that route again I’ll either go with Mann or one of the remote tune shops. I just haven’t been a fan of the way Mann has communicated with me in the past. Quote:
Funnily enough I was originally considering Civics because I didn’t know I’d be able to afford a sports car .

we had an issue like this with a ftriends 2015FRS with the vortech kit, one day it started misfiring really bad. he dumped some octane booster in it and reflashed the tune ( went back intoa semi learning mode too) and hasnt had an issue with it since. |

1. Bad relationship at this point with the shop/tuner 2. I’ve been trying to just run the car normally the past few months to make sure it was ok (obviously not).

That’s what I’m hoping. Hopefully just something that you guys mentioned being faulty rather than the engine itself .

but if the car turns over and starts its not going to be the "engine" per se. crank bearings, oil pistons itll most likely be an auxiliary system. something spark related have you pulled a spark plug? another possible cause is a burned Node due to detonation. even if all the eletrodes are there the color of the plug can tell you alot of whats going on |
