    Revving issue.

    So I have a problem. I took my car out today and I did a WOT in 2nd 3rd and 4th gears. I hit a rev limit and a bad shake and hesitation in every gear. It varied in rpms, in 2nd it was around 4700 and in 3rd and 4th about the same. I did it again. This time 2nd hit 5500 then 3rd stuck around 4000ish and I quit it. Car drives amazing and pulls nice but this is weird. What could be causing this??

    Trans slippage it sounds like. Are you still auto transmission with it?

    No its 5spd and I think it's a spark plug or coil issue after I spoke with roman on the phone.

    Yeah. Check the spark plugs/gap and wires. Make sure is no vacuum leaks that making the car lean at some point at high rpm. If you running a CAI make sure your fuel trims is on point. Last time i had one it got my trims positive making the car lean. Max at 12.

    sounds like a misfire. spray a little soapy water by the coils and see if theyre arcing somewhere, or pull your plugs and check the gap.

    I replaced the plugs and the coil in suspicion. It didn't fix it.

    I had a p0300 that I just cleared and also installed evo coils and v6 tv. Ill test another woot soon and see what's the deal.
