i still have a problem...

Shiv,

I called you a while back about this problem i was having with my Stage 1+, that it wasn't making nearly enough power.

Since i couldn't come up to get it tuned for at least a month, you told me to check the cam gear settings . . .

Road Race checked them, and theyre set correctly, one tooth to the right of the "0" degree mark at TDC.

Then i called, and i believe it was Brett that i spoke to, and suggested that i switch the plugs.

Did that.

Everything was fine on the freeway ride home, although it didn't feel any faster.

Then the next day, i uploaded a stage 1+ map with lowered boost levels, and it kept hitting fuel cut at random points. IT was nothing like the fuel cut i used to hit consistently at around 80mph in 4th gear when i was running the Stage 0.

It now hits fuel cut in first, in 3rd, and in 4th every now and then. very strange.

So i uploaded the standard 1+ map again... and no more fuel cut...but now it feels even slower than before.

I apologize for the rambling . . . but any ideas / suggestions before i bring my car up to you guys in about a month?

I honestly have no idea. I could take stabs at it, but it probably wouldn't help you diagnose your problem. Best bet would be to wait until I see it myself.

Do you have a boost gauge? If so, what boost pressure does it go up to before it hits fuel cut.
