This is messed up. Fuel starvation with only 103 miles on a full tank? Come on Nissan, what were you thinking, this was going to be a straight line car?
I posted this in the Stillen thread because I'm running their supercharger with the small pulley. Lots of boost + lean a/f ratio = detonation. It wasn't much detonation, but still scary when you have no warranty.

wow, that sounds scary! SO It only does that when you're low on fuel? I still have some low end detonation on my car.
