Computer acting odd after header install?
OK so its been a few days since i have installed my header. I was out last night and noticed something strange when i floored it. Heres the deal, i have an auto tranny normally it shifts between 6400-6600 when flooring it. Now in first gear and only first gear, flooring it will take me straight to fuel cut (7000+ rpm) before shifting. Anyone have any ideas?
I think i might just reset the computer again to see what happens, but i would like to hear from others first before i do.
Thanx for any input ^_^

Um don't floor it? Headers are meant to increase top end power. The auto tranny changes it's shifting style due to backpressure. Try the ecu, but I bet it won't change much. Get a vafcII and dyno tune the a/f mixture. That's all you can do.
