While the cam may be laving a little on the table I would highly doubt it would be causing issues.

You wording has me a bit confused but I would bet your problem is else-where.

Can you explain the part in bold better? It would help us help you better, I think you may be talking about belt slip but not sure. What size pulley do you have on the supercharger and is it the MP112 or the TVS?

its the Mp112 and its the 3.60 pulley (stock) and by cut I mean it feels like a fuel cut but everything is running good, I have no vaccum leak.

The last answer i got by the workshop is that it has an electricity problem Everytime I go WOT the voltage goes less on the car causing it to keep holding the power and let go
