I'm never satisfied but it is what it is and I'm gonna enjoy it!

There is still a few drivability issues that needs to get resolved. it still pings on the low end and my hot start is showing again. I'm not too worried about the hot starting, just the low end ping is what's really concerning me. I'm sure uprev or stillen is gonna fix it soon just don't know how much longer and I can't wait to get everything squared away and get the stupid carb sticker.

is the pinging similar to a knock?

Both are forms of detonation, so in theory, yes.

How about trying some sort of octane booster to help with the pinging issues? Do you buy gas from the same place all the time?

We are also wondering the fuel he has access to as well, if not a habit in going to the same station. That being said, we should have some adjustments soon to help with the remaining quirks Weiboy has noticed. His G is very prone to tip-in knock.. which can be present on stock vehicles.. but seems to be very prevalent with his.

Wei.. switch the stations up.. and make sure it's a brand name station, and if it has been.. a different one..
