Default High Acceleration shut-down

Occasionally during hard acceleration in the 6000RPM range I lose power, the engine doesn't die. The power just leaves. I'm guessing that I need bigger injectors or a fuel pump? Mods are - Flowmaster exhaust, Intake, Pulley (I believe it is a 2.61 now, although I am not exactly sure anymore)

Have you had a dyno tune yet. i would look into that so your car is safe with those mods, especially that pulley size. plus they can tell you if you are maxing on fuel or maf limits. i would think maf but they will let you know.

Thought just crossed my mind. . . Think a dirty air filter could also add to the problem? I've been looking for a reasonable yet good place to get a dyno tune in denver, but there all asking for around $200. Not that bad I guess, but I was expecting more like $125. I'll have to get that done asap though!

Here's an update. I cleaned the Air filter, and carefully cleaned the MAF with rubbing alcohol and a linen cloth. Runs absolutely amazing now! I've still got to get her to a dyno this week. Thanks for the response, it was very helpful! (Wouldn't of thought about the MAF if you hadn't of mentioned something about it)

Thanks!

That's cool man, i'm glad it was a simple fix. The dyno tune will do your car good too. When you have it dyno tuned, let me know how it goes.
