Default Quick question!

Hey i kno this is talked about A LOT...but i have a quick question that only requires a quick answer!

It has been said that the JWT popcharger may cause stalling at highway speeds in neutral....i was just wondering if this was very common or just happened here and there and on certain vehicles?


and yes i searched, but I found more info on horsepower gains...and didnt find anything on the stalling problem.

thanks!

Had mine on for 3 years and never experienced this problem. Actually this is the first time I've heard of this.

that has happened to me also...when cruising at about 60 mph...if u put it into neutral..my rpms would shudder a little ultimately causing the car to stall..this only happened to me about 5 times but not recently. i think it has something to do with the maf sensor. but nothing you have to worry about

Can you please tell me a good reason why anyone would want to put their Z in neutral while driving high speed?

The only reasonable explaination is if you are out of gas and are just trying to coast off the highway

If you drive 100MPH, shift to neutral then tap the top of you head three times and whistle Dixie, the 350Z will stall. So be careful.
