Flat Spot in Acceleration.
When accelerating hard in first gear, foot to the floor type situation, i noticed that there was a sudden stoppage in acceleration and then it came back again very abruptly.
I suspect it is a air/fuel ratio problem, as there has been no remap for the mods it has. IT's almost as though it is being flooded.
Any idea what it could be other than what i have suggested as it only happens in this gear. I will be getting it remapped when i replace the induction kit for an Apexi.

Cheers Dears....does it feel like you hit a brick wall then cuts in again very sharply??

Does it happen in any other gears??...i suspect you are hitting the boost spike limiter within the standard ecu's parameter's.....i think its set at 1.275 bar....dont quote me though..does it feel like you hit a brick wall then cuts in again very sharply??
