Misfiring around 7000rpm
Hello people!
The car misfires at about 7000rpm, at least it feels like it. It backfires and complete loses its power, than aften half a second it continue to pull all the way to the rev limter.
Any one have any ideas?

Try 38 lbs at idle with a rising rate regulator . Change your plugs and check your plug wires. Call Garfinkle and get a torque brace, if you are going that high in RPM.

BUR9EQ all the way around. im sure that the platinums are better for longetivity but copper is a better conductor. i used to work at kragen and my buddy still gives me a really great price. cant beat 2.50/plug and in stock. PLAT are like a week order and i can get them for around 8-10 bucks. just easier to go with the Cu, and dont forget to go 9"s all around.

Yes its the stock ECU! Now that i have installed a boost gauge I think its the fuel cut thats giving it a hard time...! Time to get a boost controller...
