like you should be running a walbro fuel pump, U should be ok with stock injectors, but thats pushing it. Also you might want a apex safc or something to give it alittle more fuel

Exactly, I also say you are starving for fuel. Go buy some GSL-SE injectors or 720ccs, and a Rtek.

I forgot to mention a Walbro or rx7.com fuel pump. You might want to take down the boost right away.

how are you monitoring boost? Do you have a aftermarket guage? Stock guage is not going to give you proper readings.

"Keep Kevins phone number on speed dial"

That sounds all to much like me.....

tIIsleeper - Dood I thought you car wasent even runing right? Yea your probably around 200 at wheels

Turbo23 - An SAFC can not add fuel it can only pull back the duty cycle.

Yes, I have an aftermarket boost guage. Its running like ***** right now, it hesitates between 2 and three grand only in gear. I dont know whats wrong, and the engines blown. Rear rotor reads 35 psi and the front is at 60. Three days ago I drove it and it pulled nice and it didnt hesitate or buck at all. Now its doing it.
