so a couple of you may have read my post a lil while back where i was having issues with my car turning off after longtubes, turns out i just needed a dyno tune but when i was at the dyno shop i got something that even the guys said had never seen before. i have changed fuel filter, put accel coils and new spark plugs. they said maybe the alternator any one was going bad . at aroudn 3500 hundred rpm the power drops way down. and you can also feel it on the road it feels like if i hit a rev limiter and cuts fuel or spark. it did it with and before the tune. i just dont want to pay them 100 dollars an hour in labor for them to find out wuts wrong with it . any ideas

Does your car have an auto tranny?

I noticed it actually dips twice. Could it be a slipping clutch? Notice any odor?

Thats weird man, I would check the plugs, injectors, and fuel pump. It could be clutch related also, maybe a galzed flywheel or something. If the clutch is slipping you will smell it burning.

well i dont think its the clutch the guys at the shop would have noticed, plus it has a resurfaced flywheel and stage 2 ram clutch and no odor.. im gonna go get my injectors checked and i guess replace the fuel pump its seems to be happening more often now at wot :crying:.. o quick idea could it be a bad knock sensor?

Have you checked the PCM with an OBDII reader to see if it's throwing any codes?

Yeah it does suck. Good luck man. I hope it's a loose wire or something easy to fix.

Check your Fuel Pressure before you have them go any further.
