hey all... i noticed something with my car....
tonight on the way home i gunned it in 2nd, shifted into 3rd when it got around 3800 and 3900 rpm's my car did a huge! miss or backfire... but no loud bang so i assume a miss-fire? but it didnt stop there. i shifted into 4th and it did it that same RPM range...
4th and 4grand is alittle fast so i didnt try 4grand in 5th sinse i was just getting out of the city [paranoid]
ill try to make the sound my car made with letters:
waaaaaaaa..... ............... waaaaaaaaa....
where the group of ..... is... thats what my car did... nothing my exhaust went practically silent for a 1/4 of a second, and by the time it hit 3900/4000 it acted like it had power again...
im assuming it only does this in 3rd and 4th gear because of the ratios because it wouldnt do it in 2nd, or 1st...
and heres something else to throw in the mix... on a back road i slowed down enough to get into 2nd around 2k, and then took off and it didnt do it... so i thought it was a glitch and it was gone.... but then a few mins later i wanted to see if it was still doin it... and yep it did it again...
so it did it, didnt do it, didnt do it, did it... amongst 4 lights i hit on this back road.
my mods:
cossie CAI, MBRP 2.25inch flex back exhaust, and these: http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=FRM%2DXP104&N=700+115&autoview=sku
i didnt gap them... i just put them in... that might be my issue...
but i almost forgot too... i also have an SCT Excal2 w/ 93oct tune from FS...
i thought about taking the tune off tomorrow morning and seein if my car does it with the stock tune...
any ideas?
