Default cutout at wot????

During wot it cuts out for a split second after the tires start to spin what is this?? The car runs great nothing wrong mechanically I don't think anyway. have all the mods listed below just happens everytime the wheels spin doesn't happen on the interstate... The traction switch is off by the way.

Have you talked to Lucky about it? I am 100% positive he would have removed the fuel cut off for that boost range.

My guess is your misfiring or hitting the rev limiter(very unlikely with an auto).

For the misfire, there have been many threads on the subject. Pretty much the fix is Volvo OEM plugs with attention to the gap(.028 or less) and a good set of wires.
For the rev limit, you will need to talk to Lucky but I think he has it set to 6500 as an automatic should not go above 6k. I requested my limit which is 7300 but I am running a manual and can hit that.

I have 1 month old volvo oem plugs and wires that area of the motor is good. When I floor it around a corner or up a slight hill or once the wheels start to spin the engine jumps down to say 1k and then jumps back up to high rpms real fast I have the ard white so hopefully the cut is out. When i punch the gas it hits around 15psi then comes down to around 10psi and stays... Cbv?? If i floor from a stand still it doesn't do it just when the wheels spin I dont know if it has something to with the trans or differential or its just normal LOL anyone have this happen??
