Supercharged!

Well i have been trying to tune my car since i put my supercharger on! Needless to say its not going well i can only hit the 5psi mark on a 11psi system! When i get to about 3500 RPM it spits an sputters an sounds like it is drowning! if i let up on the throttle for a sec it is fine but i guess my question is could this be a spark issue? one other thing it is running extremely rich but it is not smoking On my SCT tuner i can change spark advance but to be completly honest i don't know what to look for when im driving to tell if it needs advanced up a certain amout of degrees or decreased so any insight on spark advance an its funtions on the engine would greatly be appreciated! thanks

To properly get it tuned, you need to take it in for a Dyno Tune. That's pretty much the only way to do it right. Est cost, around $400-500. But, you might want to ask the guru's in the Pipes, Boost and Juice section

RE: Supercharged!

what in the HELL are you doing getting to such high RPMS without a damn tune? You are ASKING to blow your engine. DO NOT GO OVER 3000rpms if you do not have a tune!
