What gaps on the plugs and what boost are you running?

Non-Ford leads are shite.

When you say it only revs to 5500, does the engine just bounce (like its hitting the limiter) or is it more like hitting a brick wall?

plug gap is set at 26 thou,running 24psi.
when it hits 5500 it is not like hitting a limiter,it just doesn"t want to rev any more as if there is no power above that.
cheers dangerous

Sounds like youve a split in a hose or something , the boosted air sounds like its getting out as boost rises .

Mine hits the boost limiter at 6200, running 24psi also with bajoo software. It would seem Bajoo is putting these "safeguards" in his chips. But I aint sure, could be sumat else.

I think you need to get it checked by a pro.
