or if you are running an opti, then there MAY be the culprit. i have a real distributor for sale if you are ever interested
and works great with the XFI ! 
do you run closed loop pr open loop when you are WOT ?

it would be reading irradically if something was wrong upstream....no ? do you run leaded fuel alot ? could be your o2 beginning to take a dump ?

idk i was thinking it could be a problem up stream but i check everything out and it looks good........plus i can see the O2 jumping wicked fast at part throttle from like 12-15AFR and this car never did that before.......but yea i do run leaded fuel all the time a mix of 112/116...........i think the O2 is on its way out its been on there for 2 years it a miracle it lasted that long with leaded race fuel.......\
last night i did a compression test.....leak down test.....cooling system pressure test and i verified the coil and crank trigger was working......the only thing the opti is doing is sending the spark its just a cap and rotor......i figured if that was bad it would be doing it all the time and not just at WOT
also yes i run closed loop at WOT but its a small correction factor ...less than 4%

i have an accel billet rear mount distributor. 3 wires from the fast and you have a no more issues!!!!! Period! i even have spare caps and rotors. that is how i roll! nothing worse than going racing and needing to swap the car or something stupid, and damn, no spare parts.
of course you would have to have your intake modified to accept such a piece.
it is a dist. for a 95 - 97 gm chevy p/u truck with a Vortec engine. but it is a nice billet distributor.
i would definitely swap the o2, get ready to bend over...200 bones for that part! i only run leaded fuel when i spray the car hard. otherwise pumpgas works just fine

Yep I street drive it......it stops just fine you just cant go road racing the car lol........you can get 3-4 hard high speed stops out of them then they get a bit of fade from heat.....but for normal driving and a couple of emergency stops the work great
i didn't do a weight comparision i didn't have time lol.......but i can tell you they are wayyyyyy ligher........the hub itself droppped like 7lbs each......the rotors are almost 15lbs lighter each i think i dropped around 40-50lbs off the nose with them but its rotating weight too.......... before my brakes would drag on the front now my wheels spin like bicycle tires lol........cant wait to get the popping issue straightend out and get this thing to the track and see what it does........im hoping for 10.0's

hahaha looks good man. yea i have heard drag brakes make a huge difference both with reg weight savings, rotational weight savings, and drag! it will def be a mod i will do down the road.
