I have this studdering/missing problem when i hit boost it acts like its all choked up and then at like 5000 rpms it fres up till about 5500. But my idol is fine i dont get it. I have replaced the plugs and that didnt help much then i changed my fuel filter it was in definite need of being changed. But still didnt fix my problem i noticed pressurized had close to the same problem as me except the smoke and idleing. So could mine still be timing even tho it idles perfect and no smoke.I can rev the car in neutral all the way to 55 or whatever and i have no problems no miss nothing. Icant figure this out can someone help me. I have only had the car goin on 4 weeks i dont know much about it. I only have uicps and a 1g bov and k&n filter and i pulled the lilttle restrictor out of the boostgate solenoid Vfaq mod thing. Thanks any help or ideas would be greatly appreaciated.Tyler :talon:
 
Sup...my car had no visible smoke at all really....Im just very criticaland noticed a bit of black smoke (unburnt fuel)I couold not see it while driving though.......


Checkyour timing, thats alli have to say right now...I tried everything else and finally did the timing beltand I noticed the timingwent offabout 2 teeth.

it's easy to check your timing...you have to line up all the marks...just lining up the cam gears is not enough...you have to check the crank etc.


the easiest way o tell is to grab a timing light and check where your timing is at....if it is off a tooth on the timing belt...it will probably be WAY off on the crank pulley...and when you adjust the CPS to get it to 5BTDC the distance that youhave to move the cps will seem very wrong.....thats why I checked mine because I set the ignition timing just a week before I had my problem and when I checked it after my hesitation issue..it was no where even CLOSEto were I last set it at.

Hope that helps....if you have any other ?'s PM me.
