Decreased throttle response
Go see Shawn, he will fix!
The new ETC and his other magic will get you back on track (no pun intended)...
Do this before Sunday so you have no excuse not to go to the trackv

Here is the link on how to replace your PCV valve in case you decide to do it http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to/vi...5-263050/view/

I'll call him tomorrow for the ETC and hopefuly i will get this resolved by the end of today.... What a horrible time for this to happen.

Just get over there - go now... tomorrow at the latest. JUST DO IT!
Do you think an ECU reset would help? Also, when I was putting in the motordyne spacer on my G; I noticed a sticker on the TB that advised against cleaning it because it could throw off the calibration of the throttle plate or something like that. Back when I was on maxima.org and the 02s were fairly new...I remember in some cases people posting about how they had to replace the throttle body, after they had done throttle body cleaning on their cars. Going back to the spacer install, (I had about 8-10 miles on my G) I was surprise to see how dirty the throttle plate had become given the amount of mileage it had. Not only that but the air filter was very dirty as well. My point is, I am glad to see some of you that have clean the TB on your cars, haven't had any issues.

Added the BG44k with 7 gallons of 100 octane gas and things are slowly improving. I did have almost 1/2 tank of that crappy gas in my car when i filled up with high octane.
The hesitation is almost gone but the car does not accelerate as hard as it used to. Hopefully after a full tank it will go back to normal.

This is becomming like my golf game - in golf I'm better than the guys I know that dont play - but worse than the guys that do play... so I can never find anyone to golf with...
If you dont get your sh!d fixed, I'm in the same boat with the car - faster than most NA Gs/Zs, but cant race against Viet and other FIs or Tim's Vette... GET the **** Fixed! Your the only one I can race Sunday...

When you gonna join us on another Palomar run? After I get my alignment, I should be able to hold a few more mph through the sweepers.
