Hey guys, I just got my freshly built motor back in my GS-T and it has a bad missfire. It is throwing no codes (I have been using my logger w/MMCD). It doesn't missfire in 1st gear, but 2nd and beyond I can't seem to accelerate and it shakes bad, I think it really only does it when I get into boost, but it does shake a bit while idling (still have my balance shafts in). My timing advance is around 8-10 degrees at 750 RPMs (I can't get it down any lower, the CAS is fully retarded). My mods are:
Wiseco 8.3:1 CR Pistons
Manley Rods
BPR6ES plugs gapped at .032" I believe (they came pre-gapped)
NGK plug wires
Wastegate boost pressures on stock 14b
I think my issues are the plugs, do I need to move to a different one since I upped the CR just a tad? I will try to close the plug gaps to .028". Also will the TPS have any effect on this? It was sitting around 8% at idle, which I believe it should be around 10% on a 1g. I haven't had time to change it yet. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
