sounds like your not getting enough fuel during boost.
as 4000rmp comes up your probably just hitting full boost, and your not getting enough fuel to compensate for the extra air.
i'd advise to up the fuel a bit more, or look into getting some injectors for it. the stockers may not be powerful enough.

kool..thanks ....that makes sense......on the emanage setting i have set like........... (0 being stock ecu) 0-100%
4200.. +4%
4500.. +7%
4800.. +9%
etc......
finally 7500.. +15.5%

what i find strange is that after i did the headers...thats when this boggin began.....is it because the headers flow more air ?? so what do u guys think i should adjust the parameters to?thanks for the info

Do you have an exhaust leak before the turbo?
