Ok. So i was coasting on an open road in 4th gear i believe. i was going about 80 and my rpms were at about 3400 or 3500. All of a sudden my engine stuttered and felt like a mini fuel cut or if i was to quickly tap my brakes.
Could it be my plugs maybe? or does anyone have any other ideas?:confused:
 
Definatly, like i said before man. Pull that 16g off, put the t25 in your shed back on. Rebuild that 16 into a 20g, do your fuel upgrades (afpr,pump,injectors) and you'll be sitting pretty. At that point you would be looking at a maf-t as well or you could scrap the safc and maf-t and just go dsmlink.

I agree with everything you have said in this post except the thought on building the 16G into a 20G. From the way he's talking it sounds to me like he wants a decently powerful daily driver. A 20G sure wouldn't be any good for that. I drove a 2G with a td06-20G, you couldn't even come off a freeway entrance ramp and get into traffic because of the horrible lag. Just refreshening the 16G would be much better for a DD street car. 20G all the way though if you want a high end track monster.

yeah. i'm gonna do the swap here as soon as i get the parts ordered (trying to figure out every part the i need, a guy told me in a different thread but i'm not sure if he meant copper crush washers or a different type of crush washer)
and as soon as i sell my dirt bike and get the money (roughly 2,500) i'll upgrade the fuel system. i wish there was a way to stay away from dsmlink because it's gonna be such a hassle to get an eprom and then install it all and then figure how to use dsmlink.. at least it seems like it would.

And you right. i'm looking to keep it at 16G running about 18 psi on high. maybe up to 22 if i get a little speed addicted.
