look man, no disrespect to u nor the other poster in this thread but u honestly need proper tuning and engine management to have this car running properly 100% of the time. you're on a budget but there's only so many corners that can be cut. my suggestion is a tuned ecu, wideband, and safc. you shouldn't have to worry about timing with the ecu but if things get hairy driveability wise, you can just monitor what's going on the wideband and adjust with the safc till you figure what is f'n up. anyways, good luck with the project and she should be able to brake the 14 second barrier with a competent driver and launch.

Man, don't give up. What plugs are you using and what is the gap set? Try a gap of .35 and see how she does.

This does not work at all, idk how that got started.
It would work if you maxxed the injectors at all times. Buy an AVC-R and adjust boost based on RPM using a 50trim so that your car makes ~260whp at all RPM ranges under WOT. And don't ever lift.
