JT...Jason and whoever else.....

After a week of vac on the house I figured the car would get some time...
symptoms of the car were that when wide open throttle when the car would shift...to second...and sometimes 3rd...there would be like a pop...(kinda like a hesitation...almost like the trans was slipping) and I thought the new K N was not sealing completely around the bullet Granitelli MAF....
Tonight I pulled off the stock piping and adaptor.....put the cheap Ebay CAI straight chrome pipe back in....left the huge azz K N filter....but I knew that this sealed fine...

I took it out and put my foot through the floor....any more and I would have been Fred Flinstone.........I stopped and did this at least 20 times....I would let off as soon as it shifted into 2nd gear.......sometimes I would get it up to 20 mph and stomp it.....not once did it pop....hesitate......shifted the way it was programmed to........
I am guessing that because the adaptor was not 100 percent sealing around the Granitelli is that air was being forced back out.....but I may be crazy...what do you think....

Chris......I was starting to think it was time for a trans... ......I'm going to have to try and hit up the track again.....I am off this week as well.....I am thinking this hesitation held me back at least a tenth...... ....and I'll see how the car reacts to speeds over 60 mph....

I thought I would share my findings with you JT....and I emailed Jason as well.....
I had barely driven the car after installing the K N and UD's....and had the family with me when I drove to the track....so regular driving was not affected....but once there was a lot of air ...this is what I called a burp in the other thread........I marked the MAF before I pulled it out of the adaptor within the stock piping and the "necked" down portion was right at the opening.......so I"m 99 percent sure this was my issue....leaving the 1 percent to Murphy to get me.....
