I've ran several bottles threw it and no prob now all of a sudden at WOT it boggs.
not to belabor the post & drag it on forever but, here is your original post. how can you have run several bottles & now all of a sudden it boggs? did you change something & then it suddenly bog? Not a big deal, just not following is all. did this happen when you went from the 150 shot to the 200 shot?

Would it be possible for the MAT sensor to be malfunctioning? If you have relocated the sensor to the air box in front of the throttle body, ignore this. I don't have any other suggestions... By the way, nice meeting you at Famoso last weekend and thanks for the regulator! Hopefully we can hook up again in the near future. SC3GFB.org is planning a trip to Nojouqui falls in about a month, maybe you could join up. Send me an e-mail.

That I couldn,t reall figure out either
Trust me when I say that I really wanted to find out FOR SHURE what the problem was
I didn't change a thing except one injector went bad and there was no change after that it still didn't work at all
I wish I could find out what caused such a drastic change
but anyway I have found now just by trial and error that it was wat too rich and I've got it working now ...the real test is to see if it ever changes again...if it does then I would say that there's some kind of a problem with the fuel pump....but I had a constant pressure .... I really dont know but I'll post again if anything changes
Jason
Ya it was good meeting you there too ..theres really no one in this town to talk to about any third gen stuff ..it was nice seeing your car on others there..
I want to make a couple or runs soon and see what I'm running
no prob. for the regulator I was never going to get any use of it I'll drop you a email soon ..

I was told by MANY people that I shoud gap them at .045 as long as I have a MSD
I'm not too shure what's up with that ...but I did get a very noticable throttle response
I really would like to know why I shouldn't seriously ..I have heard people sat that the higer the cylinder pressure the harder it is to spark ... and then I was told that a MSD wold be able to handle it
Thanks
