Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

car seems slow



Yea man you've DEFINATLY got something out of wack.
I can leave two LONG black marks with a Bone stock 00 GTP. 0-60 in 7.01s +/-

I didn't read all the way back to the first post, are you getting any codes?
Have you had your ECM checked?
 
no im not but it hasnt gotten scanned yet, its at the mechanic right now getting some minor things fixed oil leak and axle. He told me he will scan it for me to see if it has any kr, I already ordered an aeroforce and im in touch with PRJ, ill be getting a it checked out and tuned from him next week.
 
I'm sure the 3.4" pulley on a gen V isn't helping anything.
I'd try a 3.6 and would bet you drop Several ° of KR.
 


^ def this. Not to mention even though you are getting knock having a 3.4 on there with those mods i bet your tune is way off anyway. Go get it tuned by someone you know is good with the 3.6. See how the car runs. If its good add a cam and then use that 3.4

Also if there isnt atleast a shift kit in there. Drop the pan put one in and refill with dex 3.
 
He has rockers already. I would have someone local who could tune to look at your tune and retune it. Then see what type of knock you get. Then put a bigger pulley on it if necessary.
 


I'd think with headers and rockers your 3.4 would be good.... I know the Gen V is more efficient but still. I am wondering if you have a fuel issue. Maybe plugged injectors or a plugged fuel filter that needs replacing. That would explain your lack of power and low fuel delivery would create a lean condition and KR. Delivering enough fuel to these charged motors is crucial. I'd install a new filter and seafoam the fuel system Sea Foam Motor Treatment | Sea Foam Sales Company Guys with more advanced mods such as intercoolers, cams coupled with real small pulleys run bigger injectors to deliver enough fuel.
 
got my scan guage today its hard as hell to get kr to show, it only showed maybe 3 out of 10 runs to 100 and when it did i let off on one run it hit 14kr for a second and then back to zero for the rest of the run i did not have time to let off this was prolly at 4500rpm the rest of the kr was never higher than 8 most around 1 to 4. but like i said its very inconsistent. I changed the spark plugs fuel filter oil and put seafoam in the gas. what do you guys think what other parameters should i read
 
Im have the problem where it wont start still I just went out to start again and check some parameter but it shut off after about 5sec even if i rev it up this was after a hard run
 


Make sure its on KR 1 on the aeroforce, It think they had like 3 to choose from.

Make sure both knock sensor are plugged in.


I read, KR, IGN ADV, trans temp, MAP in/hgs, coolant temp, mpgs, rpms and volts.
 
i just read the codes got
p0420 bad cat
p1626 theft
p1629 theft
the theft detection is why its not running, but doesnt explain why it will only not start after a hard run

started finally
engine temp 194
trans 185
hp 297
kr 0 most of the time
still reading other guuages

stats 0-60- 6.09sec
quarter 14.32@99

Yes if the bad cat code is coming up I'd have that checked out for sure. The fuel filter change was still a good thing to do because I'm guessing your car had the original one in there. I just changed mine recently (before smaller pulley) and it was totally dirty with restricted flow.
