So i began a thread over in Engine/Transmission/Maintenance . but the focus has switched over to more of a forced induction Question. So here whats is going on, last saturday night i took the car out for a ride. eventualy i decided to open her up and i did but soon there after the car started haveing issues boosting.
the best way to described whats going on is that when i get on it at about 3000, give or take a few rpm's ,it begins to just bog down and back fire. i believe its misfiring. it only happens when the car hits around 8 pounds of boost. odd thing is that my a/f is staying around were it used to . 13-11 range. the spark plugs are gapped to the correct gap .30 . my head gasket is good 205 - 210psi accross the board. it has new plugs and wires . the cap and rotor look good. i tried going back to an older fuel map to see if the problem would go away and it stayed. i should also note that the issue happens 90 percent of the time but not always. i am running out of ideas and could use some help. ps here the other thread i started http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showto...mp;#entry654965 -------------------- |

Who knows, maybe the change in weather threw your a/f off or you didnt make pulls all the way though the rpm range. Either way, 17psi is too much for a 5sfTe with a ct26... even with water injection.
Btw, what kind of fluid are you injecting? -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
