Default power seems to taper off a good bit

hey, so ive had the zex 55-75 shot system for a while but I havent used it in forever. I finally hooked it back up this week and everything is working fine. The only problem is when I spray, power feels like it really tapers off after about 6000 rpms. Its really weird cuz it pulls strong as **** in midrange to where if I just gas it in 1st doing a 20 mph roll i can hardly get traction. whats the issue here? ive got fresh plugs/wires cap and rotor.

Whats wrong with nitrous? I have been running it at the track with no problems for a while now.Not to mention a 65 shot shaved almost a full second off of my time.If you use colder plugs,and retard ignition timing,its fine.

As far as ur question goes.....it sounds weird.U say it works fine up to 6k,then stops?Thats fine because your car is barely making power past 7,and unless u are making top speed runs,it shouldnt matter much.But I would suggest thouroughly checking over everything again,and look for something obvious.
