Default is something wrong?

I have a 94 Z28 current mods- 3.73s, KnN FIPK, Aif foil, no cats with a single chamber flowmaster, and full tune up (plugs,wires,fuel and oil filter)

My question is that my car will not spin the tires from a dig. If i just stomp the pedal it will not spin. Is this normal?

Auto or Manual?

Whats the Compression?

When was the Opti Replaced or atleast a cap and rotor done on it?

When was the last time you ran some injector cleaner through it? (This can clog the filter if the tank is really bad... be forwarned)

is an auto car and did compression cheap all are over 180psi, and i think its the stock opti and the car runs great through the rpm band with no missing or anything like that. It just has no guts on the bottom. Almost like the timing is retarded. How can i chekc that?

He actually said over 130, but "over 130" is really vague. As is 180, since if every cylinder read 180, your motor would be a statistic anomaly.
