REally? When is the last time you changed your plugs? Mine felt the same way till I changed them.

Well I have more free time after this weekend, you need to get your stock tune from vince, and we need to work all this out.

I am hoping that Nicks car makes over 360 whp on the stock turbo once he gets the clutch in there. I told him he could run up to 12:1 CR with that E-47 and meth but he already had the pistons. That would have made for so serious power.

BTW the redbull drift car has a LNF with 13:1 CR pistons and a GT28R and runs on E-85. We need the ECM injectors and fuel pumps out of that beast (no way to tune the ECM though).

I changed them out... 3 months ago. Probably less than that actually. My car has ALWAYS done it though, Only happens if i get close to 6500, kinda random when it does it though.

This is exactly why. Don't recall the exact numbers, but I believe on a 2.8 the blower takes at least 40 hp to spin at redline. A car making 275 whp on an m62 is really pushing closer to 375 at the motor, while a turbo car making 275 whp is likely closer to 325 at motor.
