How does fuel cut feel like?

This happened today for the first time, I roll launched in 1st gear, WOT, around 4k my car went into a jerking motion. Was that wheel hopping, fuel cut or clutch slipping?

thats fuel cut for sure, I got my ECU back from dynoflash yesterday and NO more fuel cut for me ! but I still set my Blitz SBC-id to 22 psi for safe! too bad you are in Hong Kong, do not know where you can that fuel cut remove !!

If you feel like you hit a brick wall and the car physically bucks, that is fuel cut.

Trustz,


Which ECU flash did you get from dynoflash, the $79 or the one with the mild fuel tune and how much was it? also do you feel more power?

Thanks

and thanks for the wheels you sold me I love them more everyday.

wait a minute..so does this mean people who don't have the fuel cut off removed always have to shift before 4-5k rpm for optimal speed? (i'm still in break in period . i floor it once in a while and one time got that jerking motion - i thought that was ridiculous turbo lag at first (came from a sti that is now gone)
