ok iv got my car tuned to 390rwkw, when I first picked it up, was absolutly awsome! punch it at 110 and she just kicks and goes nuts!! after about a week, I thought gee this is getting tame. maybe I have go used to it. so neways I went out to the drags ran a best of 12.6 at 110, now that aint right. took it bak to my tuner, put it on the dyno and made 296rwkw. same boost, still good afr ratio's just the timming came out of it. so they fixed it up and I had a rocket again with 390rwkw :) now its been exactly a week and shes happening again. I have no touched the car and it has slowly decreasing in power, so I just came back from the drags with 3 runs, 13.3 @ 110, 13.1 @ 108 and 13.0 @ 107. so now I am really pissed off! my tuner is down the coast and for me to take time off and stuff is a real pain. has anyone got any ideas on y the timming keeps coming out of the thing? just so I can quiz the tunners n stuff when I call them tomorro?

that's what it sounds like. Its detecting knock and pulling timing out. Is it a pretty hypo tune or is it a relatively safe tune? What mods do you have to make 390rwkw? Mine used to do the same sought of thing when it used to ping a bit.

That exhaust is fine for 400rwkw. Maybe the split dump setup is restricting it?

The colder winter weather is might be making it ping too
