You know that is quite posible,I have be running Neg LTFT's for a long time
-12 to -16.I have it in the -2.3 to -4.7 now.
I pulled a couple out on Bank 1 side the looked ok.I am running TR6's for N2o.
Should I put new plugs in it?
Thanks

you could try to run a top end cleaner through it, how do your o2s look at cruising? do they move around good? have you increased timing at all?

I have the same progblem.. sounds like a crackling sound when I press the gas in that RPM range.. happens after the car has warmed up. I changed the plugs, oil, flushed coolant, did a top end cleaning, etc and it's still there.

Think ill send the PCM to the tuner and see if he can fix it..
