When I bought my 2nd svt it choked at exactly 5k like i hit fuel cut-off at redline. I had the dealer replace it and it was better but then it was missing and i got that fixed too. But more likely its a bad fuel pump. 98svt wrecked 00svt sold 05 GTO m6 my new toy

What I meant about reving the engine in neutral and in a gear was that in neutral it reved up without a problem all the way to limiter but under heavy acceleration in a gear it always choked exactly @ 4K rpm's. Plus the car is in overall bad shape. It needs some body work. Not worth buying. At least not for me. I want a good one.

It's like they don't notice that the car isnt supposed to drive that way? Needless to say the car is a beast again --HRC '00 SVT Contour #2450 '98 Contour GL (Ready for AutoX!)
