I am having a problem with the 88T. It is having trouble idling, as well as terrible throttle response. I have taken three ZT2 Wideband logs and two videos that will be at the end of this paragraph. The mods to this car are as follows: SP58GT, VPC, eMan, e01, ZT2, Catch Can, Defcon DP w/ 3" open exhaust, 550's and a Walbro (I think that's all that is relevant)
<throttle response problem>
Lets start with the throttle response problem. This was happening slightly before the VPC, SP58, 550s and Walbro were installed, however the problem has been exaggerated severely since the install (as the video will show)
Here is what happens: I will be sitting, idling around 650 smooth as can be. I will floor the pedal and the car will bog down terribly, I swear the RPMS drop, but they don't according to the ZT2 logs. There will be a horrible hiccup where the car attempts to die and then it'll start climbing and the exhaust will humm away...
When I'm cruising along enjoying the weather with the top off and floor it, there will be a slight hesitation, however nothing as poor as what happens at idle.
</throttle response problem>
<idle problem>
on to the idle problem. We’ll start out with me in any gear going full throttle, full boost till redline. when I shift into neutral to slow down the tach will fall down to around 200 RPMs then catch itself and climb back up to ~650
if I am just treating the car nice, driving around a neighbor hood or by a cop, nice and easy and let the RPMs drop the tach will fall down to ~650 and stop. no hiccups or anything!
I've also noticed sometimes I will turn the car on and it will idle llloooowww, below 500, then after a few moments it will bring itself back up to ~650
