1st Problem with the Stage 1
#51
And it will again.........soon,............really!! The 5lb boost thing really sucks, be careful don't pull out in front of any speedy grandmothers, in a 63 nova II. Have you changed the lower sensor ? they put a new one in mine, due to the rubbing. Would be nice to figure it out, must be rough, life without boost.
I actually do have boost....it just won't stay "up". It'll peg sometimes...then stutter...i won't keep pulling...it'll go from 25 lbs...then drop...then go back up. really weird...like it's sick! Whereas....it used to pull...pull...and pull!
I haven't changed the bottom sensor...basically because from here on out..unless I get a code...I'm on my own...the dealer won't do anything else until they have a code to diagnos the problem.

You got to love those guys. Have you asked Vince, maybe with a log of it happening , he will see what is fluctuating. I guess I better call him too, I need some of that pull,pull,pull. Mine hasn't done that since the day I installed the IC and HSpipe, it stuck the guage at 25 from a slow roll up through third, it was silly fun, till I started it again and it learned back to stg1.

I asked Vince about it and told him my problem.....he told me to go get the wires soldiered....and that's about it. The Trifecta really is amazing (when it works 100%).....it really does feel like a sport bike when it pulls
I did just check the upper sensor...and it looked "wet"...I don't know if it was coated with oil...or...? I don't have any MAF sensor cleaner....so I went ahead and used some light air to get the dampness off. Maybe that'll help something......

You should b getting around 30...my first ss was and auto stage 1only , 22-24 psi all year long. And my hwy mpg was always 30 or more. Dirty sensor could also b the cause of ur low mpg is basically wut I'm trying to say

Removed the top MAP sensor....there is a big chunk of the O-RING missing....would that affect anything?
Also...let me know if this makes any sense:
I had the car running....and pulled the upper MAP sensor connector...(meaning that I unplugged it.) It runs exactly the same....it doesn't set any codes....I can go out and drive it and it does nothing.

waiting on some parts now
If I ease into it....it bogs down bad....and boost will not climb at all. BTW, what would cause the upper MAP sensor to be "oily"? I cleaned the sensor and it seemed to run pretty good....then a few more miles...it started to act up again...
