I haven't been paying much attention to this until now. I am heading to the track this Friday and I too have noticed with normal street driving, something that I can only describe as "fuel starvation" where the car will studder a bit at lower rpm's after I have hit redline and really got on it. If I push it into higher rpm's again, it will go away and pick up again like I got kicked in the ***.

Is this an accurate portrayal of what you guys are experiencing with the fuel starvation mode? I haven't been paying attention to the fuel tank level during these little episodes as I thought it was a bad fuel filter or something.


Dumb question...

This "fuel starvation mode" is triggered by the computer right? Is it safe to assume that since I already have an ecu tune on the car, that this problem can be addressed with further tuning? (As opposed to putting all that extra and no doubt expensive gear in the car)
