Car loses ***** in 3rd-ish lol
K so I'm newish to the turbo crap. Why would I be accelerating in 3rd and its like my car hits a brick wall on torque or something like that.
Just a lot of odd stuff since i put my DP exhaust and charge piping on recently.
Another thing. And I know all you guys know what I mean when I say this. Remember the first time you drove your TC the torque steer was insane???? Well either I counter it without thinking or it went away? Same for anyone? Thoughts?

If your running a 14.6 in boost then you are prolly knocking like crazy and then yes that would cause this "WALL" of loss of power!

and knock is measurement of degrees of ignition timing that must be removed from the engine to prevent detonation. ( basically is stops the engine from going BOOM)

My cars are 12.6-12.8 AFR at WOT... at idle yes you should be in the 14.6-15.0 range!
Knocking, or sounds of sand comming from the engine bay.... meaning motor is going BOOM a wittle bit in the combustion chambers!
Yep.... sorry but I wasn't going to mention it this time!
