does it happen when its only at wot? if so, is it immiditly at wot, or only when it hits full boost?

i ran into that problem whenever i was in 2nd at wot, it turned out my plug were grounding out becasue there was to much carbon build up. check them, or just replace them with new plugs/wires.

what version of walbro pump do you have?

yeah is pretty much when it hits full boost it just starts stuttering , i replaced plugs, wires and i got a new coil pack.

what did you gap your plugs too? lots of times that a problem since they usually come gapped for NA cars. gap them to .28 and never use platinums
