Guarantee you are running VERY lean!
He is right. I run a 3" pulley with my rev it up kit. Until someone gets access to the pcm I'm staying with the 3". I'm only keeping the rev it up until then. I keep it on because the car does run better with it than without it and I don't get the cell with my K&N intake. My plugs were white when I was running the 2.8 pulley. I run nitrous on my ta so I'm pretty good at telling how the car is running by looking at the plugs.

Would it be possible for me to get a Manual Boost controller(one JMC007 hsa) and say clamp it at 15-16psi??? I bet it's just running real lean 5k up.

I may just buy an intercepter and the MBC clamp it at 16psi and leave the car like that until RIU stage 2 comes for the added fuel.

If it were me, I'd go to a 3" pulley, and change the plugs with a new gap (if you haven't already). Then run again. You'll probably run better with the 3.0" pulley.

You could definitely do this. The Inline boost controllers are all over eBay. I think JMC007 went with a Voodoo one. But running a 3" pulley would probably be a better idea. Its just hard to tell without a way to monitor your KR and such.

Fast06SS and djt81185 have had really good results with a .045 gap. In fact, djt81185 got rid of all of his KR, and said his car felt alot stronger with the .045 gap. I think that gap will work great for you. Just my opinion.

I think I will go this way depending on how much I get back for taxes.....I am getting them done tommrow. If I get enough back I will buy a MBC and an intercepter gauge. Clamp it at 15psi instead of the 18psi I should be running.

FYI that was another guy...a canadian that got rid of all his KR...I never had any to begin with...but the power increase due to plug gap was insane.

i run a $20 ebay boost controller...the same voodoo jmc uses.
