engine hits wall at WOT!?
okay so here's another one of these threads, any help is greatly appreciated.
Mods:
AMS TBE/EPM O2 DUMP
MEGAN EX MANIFOLD
INJEN INTAKE/IC PIPES
TURBOXS FMIC
BC 272 CAMS
OMNI 4BAR
PERRIN 3PORT
SPOOLIN' UP COP
FIC 1450CC'S
WALBRO 255
the issue is that it feels like my car is hitting a wall at the start of WOT. when i start my 3rd gear pulls, after a few seconds it feels like the motor stops and the car just jerks violently, usually 3 times, and i let off the gas. after it stops i can step on the gas to WOT and it will run fine all the way to redline. plugs are gapped to .024.
ive had the same issue with my old WRX and fixed it when i changed the spark plugs. this fix didnt work for the evo. ive already done a boost leak test and checked all hoses/lines and timing is dead on, no issues. i am currently tuning w Tamer@4WS and we cant seem to figure out the problem.
if anyone has experience this same issue please share what your solution was.
thank you

Ive heard the Megan ex. manifolds crack a lot. I have a crack in my stock manifold. I dont think any aftermarket parts are worth buying for my set up(lightly modded). I may port the replacement though.
