1. without the supporting fuel mods you are gonna blow your motor soon
2. narrow band a/f gauges are pretty much worthless in modified engines
3. if you get in a crash those harnesses are going to break your neck/spine

You NEED more fuel. 550's are not going to cut it, not even at 11psi for very long.







To answer your original question. I don't know why your not hitting fuel cut. Maybe test your boost sensor and check the vac line to it.

alright G! go smoke a joint and CTFO.

This is where you are heading with that set up.






This was on 8 psi with a FCD. You NEED fuel management.

If you purposely/accidentally disconnected the boost sensor you won't hit fuel cut...

hey Kevin T2 you car looks nice, sorry for the engine. I have two questions:

1.What brackets do you use, or what do you do to install that racing seats?
2. In what par of the car do you bolt the racing seat belts?

Thanks

Rabble Rabble Rabble!!! Chill out. Everyone is trying to help you by saving you money. You didnt specify that you had any fuel upgrades. What are you running for fuel control? I hope more than just a piggyback. If not have fun rebuilding
