Aside from getting used to the noise and shaking from the mounts, so far it doesn't need anything. It might feel different driving it harder, but I really like how it drives. From your dyno run it could use some fine tuning, but the butt dyno approves.

I've wanted an MS6 for a while, tried to buy Jon's or Mike's but it didn't work out. I'll trade ya if you want?

I'll take her out for a session at Mid Ohio and see what Will is talking about, didn't experience none o that
I need to ask the MS3 power guys what they think. Sho said something about spark plugs, but I put new one-step colder plugs (NGK-6510 gapped to .026) in when I swapped the motor and was having the same issue. So I swapped them out about a month ago with the same plugs and still having the issue. Not sure if it's a tuning issue or a mechanical issue.
At the top of the higher gears like 4th and 5th it will hesitate for a quick blip. Maybe fuel cut due to the higher boost? I'm not really watching my Dashhawk on track and I should have logged a couple laps.
Anyone have any ideas?

What is the gap for the plugs? That was the problem with the MSM, didn't feel the dip but you could see it in the dyno graph. That, or a coil pack can't keep up.
This:
It's streetable right? Take it out, run it through a few gears or simulate the conditions that lead to the hesitation and see what shows up in the log.

just a blip? so if you stay on it and the RPMs keep climbing it goes away?
how much boost are you running? do you still have the stock boost controller?

Yeah, just a blip. I'll stay in the throttle and it will go away.
Again, I don't really go wot very often so I don't really watch my Dashhawk or log. But I think I max boost around 20psi. I know 23psi+ is when the OE map sensor has issues.
I don't know what the stock boost controller is. I know I don't have a manual boost controller like Phen did on the MSM. I thought boost was controlled by the ECU?
I don't really know these motors very well at all and I don't really care about horsepower. I just want a reliable, solid running motor and tune.

You're not running out of fuel, might be a tune issue. We can check your boost settings next time I come over
Well there is an upgraded EBCS that has 3 sources to read boost rather than the stock 2. So it can read boost more accurately which in turn your tuner can tune you easier and more precisely. But the MAP sensor is what controls boost. the stock one is a 2.5 bar sensor and can accurately read to 22.5 psi (if it is good)
