Well ever since we swapped the BP into my fester i have been working on little things here and there to get it complete and running better. My recent fix was a air intake setup which im still waiting on a few things. My ongoing problem as of now and ever since the car was built is a major lag I guess you could call it, when the car goes around a sharp turn. If you let off the gas into the turn and then about the apex of the turn, nail it, it looses power untill it starts straight again, then it opens up and hauls butt. I always have plenty of gas in it so I know thats not the problem. Just seems odd and im not to sure what to look into. Could you guys help me out? Has anyone else ever experienced this?

Left turn, right turn, or both? Since yours is EFI, I would suspect an electrical problem. I have heard of carbs doing this with improper or bad float issues. I dont think its fuel related. A wire shorting out, or loose connector maybe?Dan
