So here is the story that goes with the problem.
I went out to tune earlier and seen a 91 awd out of the coener of my eye. I thought to myself, I have to go by and make sure that is what it was. So I did that, and yes it was a 91 AWD red with the stupid wing on it like the fast and the furious. So I stopped and talked to them. After I left there, I went down the blacktop that is close to me. I did a 3rd gear pull and it felt strong and pulled hard. I looked at the log I took from that run and no knock all the way through the power band. So I turn around and try it again. This time my pc had shut down on me so no log. But when I get to the stop sign it is idling way low, so I tap the gas to give it a rev and see if I can bring it back up. Didn't work out like I was wanting it to. I then pull away from the stop sign and go through first then second. I hit third and laid it to the floor! It took off and did what it was supposed to for me. Then I push the clutch in to coast to a stop and the motor dies. WHY? I don't know! So I coast all the way to my turn and let out the clutch in fourth gear and it catches and starts. No big deal right, WRONG! I got to the next stop and it dies again. When I got to my drive way it did it again. WHY? I know I got a boost leak at the PCV. But it shouldn't cause this thing to die like it is. I am confused about what is going on. I checked all the settings in DSM Link and they are the same as they have been. Does anyone have any ideas? If you don't remember what I am running. 3" gm mafs and translator front mount w/ hard piping Hallman MBC set at 19psi 50 trim turbo 44mm wastegate w/ open dump turbo xs rfl BOV open dump 850cc FIC injectors The last pull I did it had 2.5 counts of knock at 3200 rpm and went away at 4700 rpm. And my A/F ratio doesn't get any lower than 10.00. -------------------- Thanks, Bud!

Budmann, put a washer behind the pivot ball on the trans when you put it back in there if you haven't yet. That really helped with my disengagement point on my car. If anybody wants it, I know there is a Talon in Bill Smith Auto Parts' lot in Bloomington that has the pedal assembly welded up!
Here, this website isn't up anymore but I went to the Wayback Machine and pulled it up. Website is www.taboospeedshop.com The perfect clutch setup http://web.archive.org/web/20041021213358/...op.com/DPCS.htm ACT2600 explained http://web.archive.org/web/20040205105515/...hop.com/ACT.htm Removal and welding of the clutch pedal assembly http://web.archive.org/web/20040205142011/...al_assembly.htm -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"
