When my foot is to the floor it dose not want to shift. It's an auto but if I let up about half way it shift good. Whats up ho it's only been like that when i changed the pulgs. Someone told me I should pull the battery cable and put it back on so it could resat my ecu. Has any body been told that. Let me know before it would keep goinig and going up that hill now it dose no like to shift right after I changed the pulgs.

Try keeping your foot off the floor lol Flooring it isn't always the best means of accel.

Don't know if your transmission uses a kickdown cable but if you have one, maybe it's not adjusted properly? GL

yea my automatic takes a while to shift if i'm flooring it - it'll redline for a few seconds and then shift (which is actually pretty nice, gets all that power out of that d16a6). Just tonight i took it up to 90 while flooring it, and it performed very well with 3 people in the cars, subs in the trunk with system going - and it shifted perfect at all the right points, very smooth and quick.
Do you have DPFI or MPFI? What model civic do you have? And do you know if the plugs are colder than the other ones? I don't think the plugs could make that much of a difference, unless they're bad plugs, or you accidentally adjusted something else while changing ur plugs.
Shouldn't be flooring it all the time anyway :) it's a 14 year old engine.

Ok please say N2O or nitrous. Saying nos all the time makes you sound like a ricer. NOS is a brand... Why would you bother putting nitrous on a DPFI? You should have spent that money on MPFI swap instead.
