hey need some real quick help, sounds like an air leak to me.
engine is pretty new
-it sounds like its running really lean(making that like skipping higher pitched exhaust note) it is pretty rich though still
-high engine temps
-bogs at throttle, which i was thinkin is because how rich it is..

did what i listed, something fixed it lol. its running great now. freddy brought it to my attention that it could be my pipe not giving enough pressure, i changed the tubing to the pipe and its a good 20 inches long now for a bit more back pressure. so im not exactly sure what fixed it, im assuming it was the gas though...running in the low 200s
