It seems to have some kind of mis-ignition issues so it's slower than my SX between about 2500-4500rpm, then finally sorts gets going from there till about 6400 where it gets tired again. It's still quicker in a straight line, but having to go back down to 4th on the freeway even tho the car was on boost in 5th is just ridiculous...it stumbles really badly!




Umm yeah its called turbo lag, you get that. seriously, mine is pretty slow up until about 4000, an ST162 will kick me till this point then, damn, you just hammer past them, having 4wd though would make this lag worse cause the little power they have then is getting sucked through the drivetrain, and yeah they do seem to tire about the 6500 mark, from what I can tell this is mostly because of the restriction in the factory dump pipe, they just feel like they are being choked after that, a nice 3" dumpy and zorst should solve this right through to 7300.

Yeah unfortunatly they shouldn't be that bad on a freeway, even in 5th at 80 I can plant it boost up and pull pretty hard.

its probably overfueling hardcore as well, I'd get it dyno run and checked out, most GT4s (that I know of) when they come to oz for some reason overfuel.
