i have a 95 gsr with
itr cams
jun chipped ecu

msd ignition
advance timing(which was like that when i bought it and i'm going to bring it back alittle closer to tdc)
vafc
aem cam gears
excedy stage II clutch
clutchmasters lightened flywheel


i just installed my N1 catback yesterday, and when i gun the car....it hesistates and startes popping like crazy...i haven't pushed it even passed 7g's yet, cuz it lags so hard.
I don't have an air/fuel gauge installed yet. so i can't tell if i'm running lean or not.
but anyways,
what setting could help this situation alittle until i go to a dyno?
what can i set my cam gears to also?
i pulled off my o2 sensor and the plug was white..what does that mean?
if anyone can help.

try changing your o2 sensor and see if that helps. if its white, that means the engine is running lean.
