A B16 does not have have secondary runners, so i'm not quite sure what you are referring to. Has the car been fully tuned on the dyno?

yes, the car has been fully tuned on the dyno. My problem is such whenever i rev till 8500 then shift gear, RPM will drop to 4500 - 5000 and i will be experiencing flat spot. The car jerk and not willing to rev. But after this the rpm will climb as usual. I have the same problem as Aman from the Hondata s300 nightmare thread. The piece of s300 i'm using have been used before at an eg b16 gt30 OBD1 and it is working perfectly ok. I'm running on a stock 96 b16a4 intake manifold.

This is a different problem. It may be similar to a previous problem posted on these forums, but it would be difficuly to have an IAB problem when your engine does not have IABs.

First check the sensor readings for abnormalities. I've seen a similar problem when the throttle body gasket was on backwards and the MAP was getting an incorrect signal.

Next look closely at the tuning. What AF was the car tuned to at full throttle? What does the AF do when you shift? Can you post the calibration?

You have a rather large turbo on a small engine...what you are experienceing sounds like turbo lag after shifting. You are falling out the the turbos range of efficiency when you are shifting.

ok, i will try to post the calibration up. On my friend eg9 using a gt30 with the same engine, the hondata s300 had no problem at all. My frien sold the same engine and s300 to me and i had this problem. The other frien of mine with the following setup also has the same problem.
wiseco 8:1
eagle conrod
arp head stuct
cosmetic gasket
resleeve
block post
gt3037
motec 3 bar map sensor
we are experiencing flat spot whenever we shift gear, we do not have this problem when we are using mircotech LT8. I suspect that the OBD2 > OBD1 harness is giving us problem?

The turbo is just nice for the b16, it is a dual ball bearing turbo. boost kick in at 3k, full boost at 5.5k. rev max 9k. I'm pretty sure this is not a problem of turbo lag, because i dont have this problem when i'm using mircotech LT8. Moreover, the car jerks and it seem like injector nt working when the problem occur. Just that what Aman describe in the s300 nightmare thread

aman had a totally different problem... i had several emails with him personally.

honestly, it sounds like a tuning issue. if you post your skl file and a datalog that includes the engine displaying the issue (must have wideband o2 in the dl) then someone may be able to help you on here. i'd be happy to take a look, too.
