Just a thought, but I have never had any lag on either car. I run belt raps on both cars as well. Trying to fight belt slippage.
To be a bit more clear; we don't really have a delay per se. It's just that(apparently)for me and a few others in fully modified SRT6's, when we drive conservatively, 2900 rpm's is reached before the 44% load that was programmed OEM(see 180's info. on top). Our bigger air and fuel has created a noticeable jerk/surge when the SC hooks. I'll check my spacing as you mention, but slip doesn't seem to be the issue here. Conversely, I think that if it was slipping a little, we wouldn't feel the jerk so much. If we "get on it" and reach the 44% load before reaching 2900 rpm's, then it doesn't happen(because the SC engages at a lower rpm). Doc, not that you ever do; but if you drove it like Grandma from a stop, don't you ever feel the 2,900 rpm SC engagement? Some of us are experiencing this jerk engagement, and I'm wondering if it can be tuned out for us highly modified guys. Can anyone here link this thread to Eurocharged and see what they may think about this issue. I can live with it, but my other half hates it!
