Well I just added LT headers, cobra tank and pumps, 8 rib kit with 2.7 pulley, and Diablo MAFia. Had it tuned Wednesday and took it to the track Friday.

The problem is when I go to launch the car by power breaking it slightly (automatic) the car takes off hard then just dies. Then it doesn't want to start after that. The car will start, spit and sputter and then die again. I let it sit for 15-30 mins and it will start but run VERY VERY rough until you put some miles on it. If you kind of just clean it out it will run fine. The car is pig rich at idle, is this what is making the car die, to much fuel being pumped in and some what flooding the engine? The funny thing is I can take off at idle and it’s fine but if I power break it, it dies?

The car did run 12.20 @ 108 with crazy belt slip up top, if you can't tell lol. The blower is some what crooked so once that’s straightened out much on the belt slip should be fixed. This car will be a STRONG 11 sec car once every things fixed.
