Boost Problem

[INTRIGUED]

I'm going over to archer's today, I talked to jermey when I was out last night and he said he would take it for a spin and add the 6th or 7th opinion on what he thinks it is ;) I picked up some new plugs just the other day. Havent had time to throw them in yet.


The car drove perfect in the cities when I got it! Damn this town!

By chance, have you checked or made any adjustments to the fuel mixture? Sounds like it could be running lean.

Has the timing been messed with lately? It will detonate easier in the midrange due to timing than on the top end.

I'm going to mess with it some more today. I will throw the new plugs in too. I also thought of one other thing. Maybe the FPR is broken? *shrugs* I'll update you guys later today.

My car used to do the same thing. I think you have a spark problem. How are your wires? I bought new Taylor SP wires and the stuttering went away. It was mainly under full boost and around 3k to 5k. This was about 2 years ago...

Well, Hughes and I installed my boost controller and boost gauge, and new plugs among other things and set the boost and she drives like a champ!

I actually need to do some more tuning tonight on it, a few things are raising a concern with me.

[A//// Guy]

Tune it eh Hughes? You know you just like driving a 1G again ;) So was it just spark?

[Kracka]

Retuned the low-throttle settings and made a few other adjustments and everything is looking good and the car is pulling like a beast with little to no knock. As far as I can tell, the problem was resolved with the incresed boost level. The plugs in there were perfect condition BPR6ES's gapped properly. We put 7ES's gapped at .030" in and left the NGK wires the car came with on.

Yes, I am loving the quick 1G around, its tons of fun that I forgot how much I loved :D

Now hopefully I can get that damn fuse problem fixed! Got pulled over 3 times last night!
