X3M stock fueling limits

Back at it with the X3M

Trying to see what the limits of the stock fueling system are, specifically the LPFP. Car runs great except will ignition cut/misfire/who knows during a pull on the Stage 2 OTS MHD map.

I’ve flashed back to stock, flashed to OTS stg. 1, ran datalogs on both, and everything looks and runs fine. Haven’t swapped back and tried stage 2 on 91 (I have a hunch it might be gas quality) but I wanted to see if anyone has some insight on this.

My two primary suspects are the torque limiters and the lpfp. On a log of a stg. 2 pull I did ~690 torque and the limiter went on a tad so I have a feeling it could be banging that at 700 during WOT.

My only other suspect is the LPFP as, when it does finally throw a code, it is related to fuel pressure. Im not sure if the LPFP is a weak point, or if I have a bad one (I’d be surprised, 40k mile car), or if my car just doesn’t like the tune.

TL;DR Car is bone stock. Running MHD with the stock downpipes setting on 91/93 oct (91 works, 93 iffy), sometimes cuts during WOT on Stg 2., throws a code 20% of time.

I'm running the MHD 95/E30 maps and not having this issue so not sure... The fuel system is handling E50-55 on custom tunes no problem from what i see.
