well i had my car on jack stands for a while doin a lot of stuff and i got it finished and back on the road and it drives like somebody stole about 100 hp from me. I put on 4 new rotors all new brake pads a new 3sx crank pulley, and a new fuel pump, and i did a compression check on the front 3 cylinders...156 psi on all three, and i installed a wideband UEGO.
so then i get it off jackstands and i rehook the CAS and i start the car then i remembered i was supposed to unhook the battery for 10 seconds after unhooking the CAS so i shut off the car and did that. so i restart the car and im drivin around breakin in the new brake pads and after i get done with that i start to test the new fuel pump and i hit 10 psi solid and the logger says 13.9 psi solid from the pump and my car just feels like im drivin a damn civic or somethin. and when i pull in the drive to check things out i hear a very very light rubbing as im coasting up to the drive. any ideas???

You have a rotor/pad issue....pretty major if it feels like you describe.
Let the car cool (test the rotors temp) and then SLOWLY do a short drive (like a 1/2 mile) and then get out and check the temp of each rotor [they WILL be warm....but if you have a stuck caliper/pad, it will be VERY hot...so be careful ] )Bob.

the test was inconclusive, no one rotor was hotter than the other???? im freakin lost, is there any chance that it is because i tourqued the crank pulley on way to much because i didnt have anybody to hold the brake to keep it from spinning so i grabbed my electric impact drill and hit it a few times with that, its supposed to go up to 220 ft lbs and that thing is supposed to be tourqued to somthing near 140 ft lbs?
