Its that time to whore pictures.















She was running pretty strong untill i did the timing, it was actually advanced quite a bit, and i set the idle for 15 +/- 1 degree and it would get on it, and from idle to 5000 the car pulls a bit less than it did with really advanced timing, THEN when i hit 5000 rpms the power band is just completely flat. all the way to 6000 its slow and doesnt pull whatsoever like it did with the timing really advanced. The problem is, the timing was set to something like 40 degrees a little way to advanced, and the idle was around 2000 rpms. So i messed with the Idle air control valve and then set the idle for like 900. So it idles better.... I dont have any boost leaks and im around 7-8psi @ the manifold, i dont have any vacuum leaks untill after the car has been driven for over an hour becuase something heats up and makes the tube or w/e expand causing a leak, that i still need to find. I am also not running a thermostat for the last few days and the next few becuase im cleaning out all the crap in my coolant system.

Has anyone encountered this problem/know a fix? Or know what this is?

Car looks good and the engine bay and engine is very clean. I always like to see an RB in a 240 where the engine looks like it came stock in the car
