Default Help: Backfiring & dying - 2006 S281 SC

Me and a friend go test drive a 06 sc281 yesterday and every time you floor it...it makes a backfiring sound then it seems like it dies until you lift you foot off the gas.

Kinstang, I had a similar issue with my 06 sc281 Automatic, but not positive of your issue. When I would floor it the SC belt would slip causing what sounded like a backfire, but would run perfect all other times. Check to see if it has a Mosaleen pulley system on it. If not, this may be your issue. The Mosaleen pulley kit reduces the amount of belt slippage when boosted. Jason from 281 helped me diagnose my issue. Thanks again Jason!
