My car has been acting strange lately ! Seems like i've lost 50% of my bhp!I delivered it to a shop and had a diagnostic test done. They said "the fuel mixture is too rich." I've got the raceland manifold, so the lambda sensor is under the car...they said it could be a problem because the sensor needs to be properly warmed up to work! Does anyone know anything about this or have had similar issues?

I have the magneti marelli injection system...

The LAmbda sensor makes NO adjustments when on full throttle and high revs, so it certainly won't be that.

I'm thinking blocked exhaust, intake, or jumped a tooth on the cam? Get the Cam timing checked...
