ya the car stuttered up top.. but smooth through the low range.. i cleaned the plug off and put it back in and so far everything has been running smooth.. i pray to god its not a headgasket.. i also just put my forge back in to see if that was indeed my problem and not the oil on the plug..

off to work..

Head gasket is easier than you think trust me..........But I hope it's not for you to

i did my compression check today

#1 perfect 200
#2 perfect 200
#3 perfect 200
#4 195

not bad..

anyway im still having bad problems with car stuttering under heavy acceleration.. it started doing it real bad again today.. and i have the 710N in.. so i ruled out the Forge as my problem..

today when i was checking my compression the plugs didnt look like they were at the end of their lifespan.. but ill try some new plugs and see if that helps my problem..

oh ya.. i just had a CEL come on as i was out driving around.. the car was sputtering under heavy boost.. and bam.. CEL .. [:@] ill take it tommorrw to the auto parts store and check my code

that's good readings so nothing wrong internal "look at the picture of the spark plug" you will notice there is no burning of oil on the tip so this tells you the oil was above the plug before it was removed indicating rocker cover gasket leak or over spill when topping up, when you say bucking "is that on hard acceleration" could be your pushing it too hard and hitting the rev limit, other problems here are mods like air-box drilling which effects the airflow and MAF sensor can give problems on readings

no its not me hitting the rev limiter.. and i have been having similar problems BEFORE i did the airbox mod [&:] .. i just started a new post about having a #1 cylinder misfire ... so im hoping maybe bad plugs or coilpack is causing my issue
