Ok I got in car today to drive to work and I was going in first and I hit around 4,500 RPMs and my car just feels like someone hooked some sandbags to the back of my car and I hear POW POW POW! Another thing to is, all of a sudden my gas mileage is shit. Its going through fuel like a mother trucker. So I have no idea whats the problem its an 98 LS.

No warranty has been voided ever since that bad boy was placed in my hands. Also at idle my RPMs are up to about 1100-1000 and I thought normally they were supposed to be 750 or so? The SAFC I turned off after this all happened cause I thought maybe Im getting to much fuel and I checked my Fuel PSI Guage and it was like at 45-50. It also like makes a noise at idle were sounds like its gonna shut off or I let out the cluth the RPM tach just jumps.

Your talking about vacum leaks I think this may be a huge factor to!
I just recently bought some silcone hoses from hose techniques and they send me zip ties no clamps. So I recently replaced a decent amount of hoses and zip tied em off so they prolly not holding well.

I turned off my AFC becuase it was acting all fawked up! It wouldnt read the Air Flow and I would be off the throttle and it reads 4.9. So I think its screwed to shit by the guys who installed it.

Also what is TB I dont know all the internet abbreviations :rolleyes:.

Thanks,
Zolten
