Randomly Has no Power
Once i trouble shoot this issue i will toss the turbo on.. Anywho at random times, the car just looses all power, i could be flooring it and it feels like the car is engine brakeing. No stumbling nothing, just engine braking... (also kinda feels like the car is outa gas i guess)
First time this happened i was doing a driving event at a road course, after a few laps the car would loose all power at random times, and then magically work fine. So i inspected the fuel system, and noticed a giant *** dent in my gas tank. So i just figured the issue was the pick up / baffling wasnt working properly..? So i replaced the fuel tank, filter, pump, added a braided line setup in the engine bay. So at that point i thought i was peachy, everything is flowing right etc... Well today i was randomly beating the **** out of the car.... GOING in a STRAIGHT line, and the car did the same damn thing. I checked all the connections, and they seem peachy. I'm just lost.
Anybody have any ideas, before i go out and buy a new harness, and an all new ignition system for the hell of it. I'll be beating on the car on the dyno tommorow, so i'll have some updates on real fuel pressures.

Re: Randomly Has no Power (triple_s1x)
I would guess it's most likely an electrical prob. Intermittent /random events are always tough. If you had a fuel pressure guage you could tell if you were loosing pressure. I assume you don't have data logging. ---- Good luck.
