Good Morning All. I proceeded to follow through on the post from earlier. i went to the dealer yesterday and installed brand new plugs, and the bpc valve had been replaced a month ago, along with all the hoses. the car itself has been rock steady, no hesitation in the idle. yet i cannot get out of my yellow zone. it is the same with or without the hose connected. my car is an auto, which i know has a different characteristic than a manual, but it seems i should have a bit better performance. maybe i am expecting more than is really there?
The motor is brand new, having just been rebuilt in august. i have about 5000 miles on it, and other than this, the car is a dream to drive.
