One last problem to fix before I can tune the car, help please!
Alright, Ive got 99% of the known bugs worked out of my motor. One last thing to fix and its time for some tuning.
Here is my issue:
When under 4000 rpm and boost is above what looks to be 3-4psi on my aftermarket gauge, the car will studder, sometimes backfire, hesitate, all sorts of crap. BUT! once I make it above 4k rpm, everything seems to smooth out and the car pulls fine to redline. I just experience issues BELOW 4k rpm. My only though is that there is something wrong with the boost sensor, either not sensing load or who knows what. Ill be going through the FSM to see how to test it.
Any ideas what could be causing this?

This will also eliminate the boost sensor as a problem.
