Default Ok. Update on my engine problem:

When the problem happens, it's happening consistantly.

In 3rd gear under WOT, the psi caps @ 13psi. Power level drops and is peaked until pedal is off of WOT.

4th, same thing, only the PSI caps at 10psi

5th, same as 4th.

1st and 2nd are alright. Launches are smooth, with no power loss. 2nd will lose power if I'm at lower rpms (about 1000-1500rpm).

tomorrow is my day off, so i'll check and re-check all the vac lines.

Grr....this is so frustrating.
