Alright, so I've finally got the motor broke in. There is an issue however.. When I go 80% throttle or more the motor kind of stutters. Also i'm seeing a few degrees of KR which confuses me because I'm running a stock pulley with headers. Maybe 1.9 rockers would kill the KR? Anways the stutter is what is bugging me most because its ruining the power and I honestly don't want to drive it any faster than an old lady until I get it figured out.. I have an aeroforce gauege so i can take readings with it to help you guys help me, I just don't know what to look for. I'd appreciate any help because I am confused at this point. I can post a video or a sound clip of it later but i thought id post here quick to get the ball rolling on solving this issue.
P.s. I was trying to think of a good way to describe what i mean by "stutter"... its like if someone was trying to run but they kept stepping on rocks.
Looking forward to the vid, when you get a chance, of course.
i think Im going to take one in a few minutes here. I really want to get this issue solved. hopefully some guys can chime in with advice or tips on where to start looking.
Are the problems 100% boost related? Do they go away if you run without the sc?
hmm I havent tried that. should i just take the SC belt off and go for a drive?
Bad BBV? Unplug the solenoid and try again.
You can still get KR with headers and a stock pulley. Especially you on high compression. A tune would definitely benefit the car as well.
Check your LTFTs for a Vacuum Leak.
by unplug do you mean disconnect the vac line running to the BBV? mine isn't controlled by the PCM as it is a topswap. I've checked everywhere and no vac leaks, but idk what LTFTs would be so maybe i missed something there? lol.
If you have a vac leak, your LTFTs will be stuck at 16.4 at idle.
And yeah, unplug the vac line to it.
Here is a quick vid that i took a day or so ago. cant find my camera now. Its not as noticeable in this vid as I was being clever with the throttle in order to avoid it happening, but you can here a couple blips of the strutter just before reaching 35 MPH. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2ZU...ature=youtu.be
It is much worse than this if im not careful and go into wot. as in really bad IMO
YupQuote:

alright Ill check those things and let you know. might not get around to it until tomorrow... dark and cold haha. any other ideas to try if those arent it?Quote:

If you're hesitant just remember that my MP112 kit had a BBV and there was no electrical connector on it at all. It'll be fine.
whats a few degrees, 2-3, or 5-7
