I figured since your car is a 2011,could be a possibility you have an 02 sensor (epidemic)definetly agree the logs are crucial in order to get an inside perspective on the matter. Z

Uninstall then disable your antivirus and download the program again then install...start live link then turn on antivirus...might work...I've never had your problem

New computer/OS by any chance? 

A.  Make sure you install/run LiveLink as an administrator B.  Don't run it on an OS > Windows 7  C. Call SCT and have them remote in  D.  Don't have your device connected during installation/update

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

13.2 with meth is really slow even in that DA. Something is not right at all. Last weekend I ran a 12.79 @108.8 with traction issues and almost full tank of gas. I do not have Meth (yet ;)) at 2k DA. I'm sure Torrie with be able to fix you up though, at the very least he should be able to point you in the right direction.

I see you mentioned plugs on ur mods? What are they gapped at???  You could be blowin out the spark. Also, what nozzle are you running on your meth and what boost do you have it come on and then max?  What boost are you seeing at full throttle?  I have my meth come on 50% at 6lbs and full boost at 13-14lbs.  I'd have to double check and I'm running a A.I. #10 nozzle.

Great advice from all the above,did you check the fittings that come  out of the tank that feeds the methanol,you could have a possible leak that needs to be addressed,BTW ITS crucial to monitor your AFR readings and send them out to Torrie for him to check especially the 1/4 mile.  Z

im running the #6 nozzle i believe, on at 10 full on at 12. just replaced the plugs. originally had a shop do them since they were already doing the meth kit. they were all at .040 i guess they didn't quite understand the instructions. do you guys think this could be the whole root of my problem? i have been very busy so i haven't had time to give her some hell and im still fighting with live links so no logs have been sent to torrie yet. also, sorry i didn't reply sooner and thanks for the stellar advice!
