hell, Texas
i was driving my car for about 2 hrs and raced 2 cars. on the way home the car wouldnt go into boost.

it would build up to about 3000 RPMs then start popping hard and jerking even harder... the temp wasnt higher than normal but for some reason the plug wires are hot as hell.

i think it is there wasnt any spark getting to plug because of the heat but i dont know, thats my best guess. i am just going to let it set and cool off for the night and see how it acts in the morning.

if any one knows why or has better knowledge than i, please post what it could be/is and how to fix the problem
 
i will check that out but it isnt acting like it isnot getting air. there was no pipe burst sound. i will however check that when i look at it in the day light
 
no street racing... just didnt put details. to clear the air, my friend has a lot of land and we race off the streets, on his land.

Poping, crackling, jerking under boost is what will happen if you do not have the right spark plugs or gaping for the plugs in your car. platnuim plugs are a no no for turbo cars.

what spark plugs do you suggest???
