Installed 8psi Procharger over the weekend. Great power but hits a wall at 5000 rpms. Anyone know what can cause this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check your fuel system. My lightning had a bad fuel pump in the front tank and would do the same thing but only when it was on the front tank.

Is your belt slipping? Does the boost stay constant, drop off, or keep increasing at 5k?
