Thanks in advance, jb
Nova motors in general don't like an overly rich LSN. Also the C5 is a hotter plug so if you are running a little rich it could be the fact that your flooding the plug with the C6. My buddy had a similar issue over the weekend, changed to a C5 plug and after a quick retune all things were better.
