I have a strange problem with my car's throttle response.

It seems that if i bring the car into the 4000+ RPM range in any gear and floor it, it hesitates before it goes. This also applies to when i shift at redline. I think the reason it also applies to this is that the next gear is ~4000RPMs at this point. Another weird thing i noticed was one time i was on 3rd gear at ~70mph and punched it. Boost came up and i heard the blower screaming, but the car didnt move!!! It was like one of the hesitations, but really bad.

If i floor it before 4000 RPM's, the throttle response is great!!! and if i shift quick and hard through the gears at lower RPMs, the throttle response into the next gear is also great.

My mods are in my sig... any ideas? :shrug:

whats your fuel pressure and boost gauge do during these hesitations

Boost gauge pegs at 10 (i can hear the s/c too). I dont have a fuel pressure gauge.

I do not hear pinging at all, so i am assuming its getting enough fuel...
