Thanks for sharing the info.. I currently have a stock 2020 civic si with no issues, looking to mod it extensively eventually, but this is the kind of knowledge that is very valuable when you don't have access to honda service manual and engineers. Priceless imo

I Repl . A turbo on an Accord and ran into the exact same issue P003A /P0046 I wouldn’t wish this on a Ex girlfriend . Your video is solid gold much appreciated

[@Zspeed]

Thanks for another awesome video on the 10th Gen Civic Si!!!🏁👍

[@amadeomira1036]

I'm going through the same problem as you and thanks for your video is helping 🙏 me a lot haha a great day

[@OGAwsomSauce]

Great video. Many times shops install replacement turbos and make the mistake of disassembling the watergate controller. Never do that. You end up with this problem.

Thanks for another informative video on the 10th gen Civic. Keep up the great work.

[@blakemarkin5027]

Holy I have been fighting this issue for a year now! Thank you!!!

[@EdgeAutosport]

This is why we do it!

[@oceanswithnoend]

Epic, more 10th gen stuff. Thanks for the knowledge 💯🤘

I’ll have to give this a try! My 11th Gen Si has thrown the overboost code twice within the last two months. 😢

[@singh-6247]

Any progress on this? I maybe looking at my 2nd turbo assembly replacement

[@Htman]

I have a POO3A on a civic lx 2017. Will calibrating the waste gate fix it ?

[@singh-6247]

I’ve got the 11th gen Si and I’ve had all 3 codes pop up. At first I went to Honda and they said if it happened again they’d replace the turbo assembly but that didn’t sit right with me. I had the overboost issue happen again. I erase all the codes every 1,000 miles and there is no mechanical issue whatsoever. I’ve been doing this for about 9,000 miles. I’m going to mess around with the recalibration procedure to see if it goes away indefinitely. It seems that the codes would come back immediately if I don’t disconnect the EWG connector and the Air Bypass Valve connector on the intake manifold and then reset the codes. So every time the issue comes I go IGN on engine off, disconnect those 2 connectors and reconnect, erase codes, and everything is fine.

Thanks for the info. Off topic question, I see you guys changed out the bov back to the turbo smart version over the hks, was that because of sound preferences or easier installation?

[@EdgeAutosport]

That's a Torque Solution. It sounds good and is super easy to take on and off since we are always messing around with the car.

Hello, I drive 2018 civic SI. I recently received a code of P0172. My mechanic thinks that my issue for this code is the waste gate due to the car being stocked since last month. I installed a short ram intake about a month ago. And tuned with Hondata. The car was fine for about 2 weeks and then today it lit up like you said Christmas tree. I’m almost tempted to throw the stock intake and retune to stock base map. Any ideas ?

[@zlreactso3326]

I know my Hondata said the car was running too rich , but I found it strange as to why he would suggest the waste gate

[@eliommusk1585]

I replaced the waste gate actuator on my accord 2019 but now it’s showing code P0046

[@singh-6247]

@EdgeAutosport do you think that if you push the cars hard often enough that the vibrations are a big enough issue to allow the adjusting nut on the EWG to back off and cause the issue in the first place?

[@EdgeAutosport]

It is possible yes, especially if the nut was not tight enough to begin with!

[@sevnshots]

I actually have this problem currently on my 2023 Type r. After installing a RV6 downpipe and a Milltek exhaust, I got this code just a few days later and have been doing crazy research on this issue since, this is the first thing I've actually found to potentially help. Any idea why this would happen right after that install? My ECU is currently with Derek Robinson getting unlocked but as soon as i get it back i plan to try this! Thank you so much

[@EdgeAutosport]

Let us know if it worked out!

[@jaywardlim6152]

why did u guys get rid of the hks BOV and put back the Torq sltion? is it powerwise or just the sound?

[@EdgeAutosport]

Sound only really. No particular reason. There's more room to work too and we've always got our hands in the engine bay so it's easier.

[@slingshot3461]

I cannot get rid off this p003a driving me nuts

[@Moha-zt7cw]

Did you recalibrate the wastegate and worked?

[@EdgeAutosport]

Yes, it's all good to go!

[@slingshot3461]

​@@EdgeAutosportdo u have a shop ?or can u help me with this code p003a
