I assume you are on OBD2. since you are in CA and any other OBD would be illegal, in which case you could take to get it scanned, and even do a real-time driving log. One would think you'd have purchased a scanner for your modified vehicle already though.

SCANNED not tuned.


You can scan it for most recent fuel tables, you can also do diagnostics while driving it. It tells you what the engine is doing so you can get an idea where the problem is. Also you can have codes without a check engine light.

Find someone that has a data-logging scanner and drive it while hooked up. Alternatively you could get Torque (Android app) and the bluetooth dongle to go with it and figure out where the issue is on your own.

This is the whole reason why OBD2 exists, so you can do live diagnostics.
