    SpecR Misfire

    No end of troubles with coilpacks, bought brand new set, fitted and all was well. Now developed misfire/hesitation at about 3500rpm at full throttle. Part throttles fine.?
    cheers

    Pulled plugs but in good condition although a little black. Overfuelling -boost leak agreed.
    To try and describe it better its an almost strangled/ clogging effect lift off and it clears, foot down again and same happens.
    Its a far more severe leak than I`ve had before if thats the problem. Will check all pipework later. Cheers

    Slight split in Fuel pressure to inlet manifold hose, changed.
    Cleaned MAF sensor.
    Still the same.
    Rear silencer box on exhaust is badly damaged, could a iffy/damaged baffle cause a similar problem?
    Still running standard boost control solenoid, again, do these cause similar issues?
    Thanks

    Are you still running the standard intercooler? it could be cracked like on the s14's?

    Sorry should of said, no a front mount. Had a S14 for years myself, checked all common issues but its a new one on me.
    Anyone know how timing behaves at this RPM? (I`m just picking faults out of the air now!)
