I need help with my current mods (you can check them on my profile) when I step on the gas and press it all the way in on the road it starts to back fire a Little bit and it kinda feels like is stalling a Little bit as well could this be turbo lag or could it be something else and how can I fix it? thanks. :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:
 
is it back-firing or stalling? do you have a boost gauge? if you do, what's it reading?
 
its doing a litle bit of both once I let go of the gas and step on it againg it goes away no boost gauge installed jet
 
the perfect e01 should tell you what u r running for boost pressure? im for sure :confused: but it should! U could try to do a leak down test, start with that and tell us what happens!
 
You've got all that stuff in your car and no boost gauge??? :nono:
You'd better stop driving that thing until you get a gauge, you have no idea what's going on in your engine. :mad:

How old are your plug wires? Nology wires are not good for more than a year. And rarely do they last even 6 months.
What kind of spark plugs do you have? What are they gapped at?
Get a boost/vacuum gauge installed. Tell us what your idle vacuum pressure is.
What is your SAFC-2 set to high/med/low?
 
I do have to get some my stuff installed in my car I got all the gauges but they are not installed and so is my boos controller and I have not tunned the safcII jet it has no settings jet but Ill definitely check all that and let you know what happend, the nology wires are not even that old maybe 5 months the sparkplugs are the nkg range 7 did not set the gap on them guess I should
