btw Lee, I was going to comment on your GT500 hesitating a few times on you.

Last weekend I was ready to pass a guy. I was going too fast for 2nd so dropped into 3rd (with a double clutch shift like I always do) and when I floored it the engine went dark for a second as if I had hit the limiter - though I was no where near red line, more like in the high 4's.
I've never had that happen before.

What's up with that??

Not sure. But I had my SGT do that a few times. But a bit different scenario, I'd get on it in first and when I hammered it into second it would fall on its face, like the traction control kicked in way too much. Going completely straight, and it wouldn't spin a whole lot going into second (like the 500 does) but it would just kill the engine for a second or so then pick back up.

Make sure your throttle body is clean. I still have a throttle cable and I notice that sometimes when it's under boost and let up, the throttle butterfly will stick closed. Probably from the blower pulling when it goes closed. Yours might be sticking but you can't tell due to tb sticking. Just a possibility.

The BBK throttle bodies are supposed to be notorious for sticking.

Nah, it was definitely the TC doing it on that one. It only had a couple thousand miles on it, and the light would start flashing when it did it. Plus I don't have it anymore, so its somebody else's problem now.
