Hey I have an s13 with sr, fmic, catback, stock injectors/turbo, walbro 255 fuel pump and a Greddy Profec B Spec 2 boost controller. When i go on my high boost (12lbs+) setting itll boost perfectly strong to 5,000rpms- its always 5,000rpms then i'll hear a loud "PUT PUT PUTT" like rapid backfires and the rpms will drop, boosting stops completely. It never does it on stock boost or low boost(9-10lbs). Anyone know what this problem is from/ any solutions?

Mabie you have to change the spark plug gap,, or could be that you start to run lean for some reason..

yea you probablay gapend them to much try gapping the spark plugs to .9 - 1.0 mm or .37 to .39, that has happened to me before, ok on low boost sputtering on high boost at a high engine speed. try the plugs.

Sounds like plug gap to me as well... I gap them down to .34. The downside is slightly decrease fuel economy (maybe 1MPG)
