Low Power...
So this weekend, I installed a set of DDP Stage 2's, 3k GSK, ATS Arc-Flow intake manifold, and 3 piece pulse flow exhaust manifold. I also moved my plate full forward. When I took it for a test drive, it seemed like it has less power than when I started. It kinda also felt like the accelerator was a lot stiffer. It idles fine, but when I get on it, it gets really sluggish. I've been able to pull to 3000, but EGT's got up to about 1100 pretty quick. Also, when I stopped, I opened the hood and there was some smoke. I'm assuming that it was whatever was on the exhaust manifold burning off. I also removed my silencing ring, although I doubt that has anything to do with the problem. Could a bad overflow valve cause the problem? What else could it be? Sorry for the long post, just trying to give as much info as possible.
