Hooray for Teal Mist Metallic. How's the power delivery feel with the supercharger? Does your engine fall on its face at higher rpm like the stock engine usually does?

The car pretty much has power everywhere. Are you sure there's not something wrong with your car? When mine was NA, I always felt that the top end was strongest.

My car runs fine as far as I know. I've never driven another SC400 though, so there's a chance she's not as strong as she could be. After about 5500 rpm, there seems to be a noticeable lack of acceleration compared to around 3500-4000 rpm.

If you haven't already, do a BFI. It's hard for the engine to suck in air through the cheesy OEM snorkel at high RPM.

I'm having a little bit of a drivability problem at the moment. I hope to fix it tonight. If I do, I will make some more videos tomorrow (Sunday). Some longer driving videos.

This is new. When stopped, if I gun the throttle a bit, it jerks two or three times, going lean and then takes off.

Also, while driving at any speed, if I gun the throttle it goes lean for like a milisecond, then is fine. I think the three problems are probably related.

I'm going into work a little bit later. I'm going to look up the TPS specs and adjust it accordingly. If that doen't work, I am going to UN bypass my fuel pump ECU. If that doesn't do anything, I'm going to blow out the MAF with air and clean the throttle body. If it's still not fixed, I'm going to leave it alone untill I get my new piping (should be here Tuesday) installed next weekend. I wouldn't be at all surprised if there is a leak in the piping somewhere causing the problem. I've even had leaks upstream of the MAF sensor that caused issues in the past.

The MAFTPro was acting up. I reset it and changed the settings some, now all is good.
