Default Nitrous "hiccup"??

I have a 01 ws6 with 3200 stall, longtubes, and hsw wet kit with microedge controller. My first pass worked just fine ran 7.50 @ 90 on a 125 shot. Second time around I went and the car wouldn't go at all it felt almost like a manual in first gear with bad cam surge none the less would not accelerate, it would pick up just a little and fall on its face.. My controller settings were activation at 4.30 volts at 2800rpm in 1st gear.. BTw i purged before the run and it was spraying great..ANybody ever had this problem? Or know what is wrong maybe trash?

Pull your plugs to inspect.

What am I looking for because its runs great on motor.. this is hard to explain because when i say it wouldnt accelerate i mean to floor it would hit 2k then drop to 1500 like a surge but i didnt pedal it

What heat range plugs are you running? I had the same problem on a tbss. Turning off the traction control off fixed the problem

Check your ground wires & other electrical connections to make sure both noids are working. The fuel noid may be spraying without the nitrous & causing it to bog down. Fuel pump pressure okay? Do you have a FPSS in the system?

I'm running NGK BR7EF Spark Plugs gaped at .038, My car doesn't have traction control... It has to be a wiring problem. I do not have a FPSS and Idk about fuel pressure yet but my fuel pump is a brand new racetronix/walbro 255lph

I would do a test of the selenoids to see if they are both working. I would disconnect the hoses at the plate & set the microedge in a test mode to see if they are working as they should.

do you run a nitrous filter? i would double check the passages to make sure nothing is plugged up on the nitrous side... possibly omething clogging the jet...
what you describe sounds like fuel noid kicking on w/o nitrous.

Everything checked out fine, i think its a fuel pump issue becuase it started doing it under normal driving.. but if it was the pump wouldnt it have went booom?

If its acting up n/a, here is what you might want to do.
Pull plugs and take a look. Make sur the electrodes are all intact.
If good then check your fuel pres. at the rail where your fuel noid is plumed in. How long since the fuel filters been changed?

am I missing something here...but if the kit wont activate until 2800 RPM and the car is acting up at 1500-2000rpm, its unlikely that its a nitrous issue
