Pretty generic question. Unless you have dyno results we can't really help you out on anything. Maybe you burnt a plug wire during your header install and you're running on 7 cyl. Maybe your A/F is messed up. Come to NEDT at the next dyno day and they should be able to help you.

Also do you have a bigger TB? I can't remember but if you do those things suck on stock engines....

plug wires are not burnt; ditched the 52 for a stocker again; possibly I'm thinking o2's OR SOMETHING I know without a dyno tune I'm stabbing in the dark; whens the next dyno day at NEDYNO?

If you wanted to take another stab in the dark...if it was me i would replace that coil with something else. Many people seem to have problems with the MSD coils. Many say stock is plent good enough....you could switch it out for your stock one(if you still have it) just to test.....5min change.

Check the local forum, there's a post there.

It could be coil or maybe your WP crapped out....When my coil died I just did a stock replacement rather than MSD....

I think she just needed time to adjust to the new exhaust and evrything else because I reset the ecm last night and this morning on my way to work I wanted to give her 3/4 throttle and she was like a raped ape!! I never beat on my baby so I thought she lost power with the mods but actually she lost it in the low rpms because when I hit 3000 she just wanted to tach out everytime and the loudmouth sounds sweet as hell up high!! So I jumped the gun and she proved me wrong again...Women...Always pulling something out of their sleeve to keep you guessing.yes I call my camaro a woman because when she's down she's down and you always throw money at her and when you least expect it she doesn't dissappoint you!!
