Aaaahhh and the light shines in with illumination.
So the situation is more like
Got some parts changed my DP threw on an internet tune and went for it.
Not trying to be a smart ***, but yeah your ecu is probably limiting you pulled some timing. I dont think it would automatically pull boost though. Get an AP with an OTS that looks like it will match, or go to a shop that will tune opensource and just get a protune.
With how much motor replacement is on these I just prefer to always play it safe. I learned my lesson early about putting on parts without a tune, or putting on parts that my AP didnt like. I didnt pop a motor but my car ran pretty poopy with some of the stuff I did.

Wait you're open source? Dude go get a proper tune from someone. Even a TP map or whatever, PM Procede he was running their maps. It's like $175. Check all your lines to see if you have any boost/vacuum leaks. If you have oil in those lines your car is probably ****ed anyways.
Hit redline many times? I dunno.... I just have no words for that one when the map wasn't meant for the mods.

So.. I did a 3rd gear pull today and I'm still having this problem. I really don't know how to describe it. Kind of like when your bottom bracket is bent on your bicycle and it just feels a tad off. The car kind of hiccups. Not a significant thing that anybody can notice but if you sit tight as I pull you can feel the car pull 100% then back of to 95% and back to 100% if that makes any sense.

I dunno, I have this issue sometimes too, but that's because I mix fuels.... Have you tried throwing maybe a gallon or 2 for a full fill up of E85 or maybe 2 of 100?

cleaned my MAF sensor around 6 and took it for a drive just now and did a couple pulls and it seems to have fixed the issue but I'll post again in a couple days when I know for sure.

not yet, gotta buy the lubricant and whatever needs to be done to clean a K&N filter. Haven't looked it up yet what needs to be done to clean them nor have I talked to anyone about it. MAF seems to have fixed the issue though
