That is EXACTLY what mine is doing. Ive tested everything you have and cannot figure it out. The only difference between yours and mine is that I am boosting higher and have less vaccum. Can you get me a picture of what your vaccum lines look like under the tb and where they go, or a discription?(vaccum dummy)

not a problem...check with me at about noon tomorrow and i will have a picture for you...i did another boost test and found that my brand new gready bov type rs (pile of sh**) was leaking out the top screw and the vac screw...what a piece...so now it got a little better but still breaks up just not as often and at higher psi...so now when i do my test i have to up the psi and check for leaks because i really think its a boost leak that i am just not finding

Thanks, I think I have the hoses correct

I made one of these last night, cost like $5 and helped big time.
IC Pipe Tester
I found a major boost leak I couldnt hear with the loud ass motor running. Vaccum jumped from 5-10in at 500rpm to 10-15in at around 1k. I still think I may have a problem but the car ran outta gas so Ill have to wait until later to go get some and test drive it.

im having the same problem but im running a map sensor so im kinda ruling out the boost leak. replaced the ignitor and im going to try the coils. My iac valve is disconnected because it went out but im on a haltech and ran a few events with no problems disconnected. Im leaning toward injectors next i was close to maxing out my 550's on the tune.

Have you cleaned your MAF? It maybe dirty

Have you checked your injectors? Ohm them out per FSM

Also your compression levels are really low, Standard is 156, Minimum is 128 psi

Try the ECU water temp sensor...thats my stab at it. If the sensors bad, the ECU doesnt know how hot the engine is. Sounds like its causing the engine to dump excess fuel into the engine...
