Re: tuning
- did you upgrade from 305 tpi? or Carb? TBI?
- I would buy a fuel pressure guage and see what is happening at 4k
the system is injected so you are either failing too lean or way rich. If its not fuel starved than the system is killing your timing.
Tuning TPI can be an insightful experience
I recall I lost about 700 rpms once when replacing my knock sensor by tightening it too much. Backed it off and got my rpms back. Joined: Oct 2006

Re: tuning
Very true,the lil things can come back and take a nasty bite out of you but if you ever do start modding and want to get the most bang out of your setup..Hawk is the way to go hands down.
