Well, oddly enough, it was spinning the tires on the dyno. That's why I thought it was the clutch originally. I put the SPEC in it, put 650 miles on it, and strapped it down, and did the same thing...then we put 2 people in the trunk, and it actually made power! I was running some worn out Bridgestone Potenza street tires, so I guess that's what did it. Put some ET Streets on it and didn't have a problem after that, just the miss.

While on the dyno you can feel the hesitation and bucking, so I wouldn't think it's tire or clutch slippage.

Hmmm... how do you expect me to help when you keep giving contradicting my ideas? Maybe that Crane box is bad???

Sorry! There's just so much info that I have that I couldn't put into one post, or it would be a mile long!

I was thinking of the box, so I'm going to try putting a stock coil back on it, and bypass the box and coil. See what that does. I'm also going to replace the opti extension harness, to see what that does.

I have seen those Crane boxes take a dump before. Maybe that's the problem. I'd switch it back to stock to double check.

Re: High RPM breakup

Well guys, I found my problem! It was the vacuum line going from the intake to the fuel pressure regulator! It had been pinched at one time, and had a hole in it. Replaced it, and wala! Went to the track yesterday, and had 0 problems! Ran a new best also, times in sig!!

Just wanted to let those that had subscribed to this thread what I found!
