Ok so I took my car to the track for the first time and it started cutting out really bad at like 5500-6000 rpms. It sounds to me like fuel cut but i dont see how it could be. I have redline set at 7500. Could I be running to rich.?
I was only running about 10psi?

Im new to the dsm world so I really need to learn about tuning.

Does anyone know where I can learn about what I should be running for my msd igniton and timing?.

Also is there anything that can help me understand how to tune my Maft?

I have a logger but have not been able to get the registration switched to my name yet.
Any thoughts would be great!!!

Thanks!!!!
 
Ok guys please help me out here.
Someone must have some suggestion for why my car is cutting out at 5500rpms?

Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I think we need a little more information than what you listed. Have you tried any form of problem diagnosis at all? Logs on the datalogger would be a great tool, if you could use it. Try doing both of those first and then posting your results. You're more likely to get a response that way. You can't just say, "hey my car won't run what's the problem". Try giving us some details like what exactly happens when it cuts out. Start there
