that could be your problem, buy a AEM F/IC and take it over to AMS Tuning and you should be fine.

You did the the bottleneck fix right? if you did try lowering the fuel pressure and see if the hesistation changes.

Hey Joe start with that gap man. I had that issue and it seems like alot of people lately have had the same issue for the same reason .50 is too high. I have mine set at .34 and never had issues again. Start there and seriously what were thinking the dealer could do for you?? i bet if you sat down for a lil bit you could figure more out than they could.

you've made significant changes to the fuel system Joe... like everyone said take care of the spark issue but I can almost guarantee from personal experience that you're having a tune issue.. the stock computer does not know what the hell is going on.

So I was in my 1st race today.....man does it feel good to hang with a 2000+ BMW M3. He jumped the gun alittle but I stayed on his rear quarter until we stopped at 130mph. I pulled up next to him and he yelled out the window, "And I paided $60k for this and I couldn't lose you!"

I'm in love with my car again.

I have the Spoolboy modded fuel canister now so in a way yes. How low should I lower it? Its at 58psi now.

Also, since I removed all the stock vac lines the car pulls so hard now and instantly spikes at 18psi even at half throttle in 3rd gear. There's no lag what so ever just a lot of wheel spin now. Is there a way to slow the boost down other then easing the gas peddle?

Thats part throttle boost i believe.. You'd have to adjust your driving style for that. Thats one of the main reasons I went back to PCM control..

*UPDATE*

Car will get painted in about a week. As Ive already said shes going AXR. All the carbon will stay carbon. Once its painted ill have one last thing to do.

Got my new valve cover in yesterday. Looks really good....just wrong color, but thats ok. Ill just need to get that re-powder coated.

Anyways, stand by for updates.
