Well my mods are updated in my profile and my friend has basically the same thing MINUS- the 3" CATBACK, AFPR, intake, and 16g turbo (hes still running 14b). Keep in mind he is running 110 Octane @ 19 PSI MBC, and im running 93 octane @ 15-16 PSI on my 16g. Now we launched Like twins (we both have ACT 2600's) 2nd gear still side by side. Top of 3rd he starts pulling, 4th gear he is exactly 1 car in front of me. then we shut down.... Is this normal our cars weighed in exactly the same.???? i mean yeah hes running 3-4 more pounds, but he doesnt have a catback???? upgraded turbo or afpr? I also noticed my car seems like it pulls way better at half throttle then i floor it and there is no noticable increase in pull or speed then when im at half throttle. Also the week before i put in 110 octane and tried to run @ 18 psi but i got FUEL CUT.??? My car is running perfectly and hold 15lbs of boost when i boost leak tested it.... my base pressure is at 43.5 psi, and everything is in top shape from what i can tell.... Any ideas ???? should this outcome be this way???? please help!!! :confused:
