Choking feeling??
Ok I was wondering if anyone else with the Turbonetics ST kit has ever experience a choking or hesitating feeling with their car. ex: Lets say you are at about 4k rpms and you hit wide open throttle then at about 5k rpm you feel a choking feeling no rpm increase. Any ideas??? Only happens sometimes.

I never have experienced this.

Hey Shervin, I've seen your chart...worse than mine as far as OTC rich....At 4K, your A/F is probably nearing the high 8's, so it's probably just bogging with all the fuel. You and I need to talk about our tuning options...The EU is lookin' real good at this point.

Don't have that feeling either! But I just bought the CP Piston 8:5:1 in stock bore like you and probably eill buy the pauter rods and ARP head stud/main bolts. I just want to be in the safe side so that nothing break later on. Wonder what those things can help my engine? I'm a newbie to this 
Hope you find and fixed your problem soon.

could be a boost leak, thats what mine was doing, id floor it and i couldnt tell a difference for about 500 rpms then boost would hit, i was blowing the intercooler coupler off a little and the turbo was having to overcome the leak, check all your connectors.

You are correct. Booger has stock bore on his built motor and he has piston slap.
