Just as the title says, I'm hitting a fuel cut in third gear. I can rev the motor all the way to red line in first and second. But for some reason as soon as I hit third the motor won't rev over 5000. The funny thing is that a couple of weeks ago I dyno'd in third gear all the way up to red line. It made 218hp and 242 ft. pounds of torque. I'm running a stock red top, downpipe only, and a Blitz BOV that isn't recirculated. Also, if makes any difference, nonoe of the sensors on the trans are hookup yet. Any help would greatly be appreciated!

I didn't hook up any of the sensors on the trans yet. I'm using a SR trans. This trans only has three sensors right (reverse, neutral, and the speed sensor)? Can I hook the speed sensor up directly to the eccs? I think that the wiring diagrams that I have show the speed sensor going into the speedo first and then to the eccs. Guess I should check the ecu if it is throwing any codes that are related to this.

The fuel pump should be fine. I could dyno in thrid gear with out any problems. Also, if the fuel pump wasn't pumping enough fuel, wouldn't the motor be leaning out in all of the gears?
