Did you check the gap on your plugs. I had a hick-up at around 4500 to 5000 and thats what my issue was.

Mines doing the exact same thing.... Except at like 4200. I just changed the fuel filter, and found out my wastegate actuator wasn't connected to the wastegate flange. So I hooked it back up, and now it's doing that.

It's crazy. If you get any break throughs let me know lol I shall do the same.

Also my boost is no accurate. 1 gear ill be boosting 4psi, 2 ill be boosting anywhere from 4-6, and same with the rest of the gear. if i keep pushing it, ill get fuel cut about 4500-5000 rpm.. oh yea i also recently replace my spark plugs too.

What was the gap you set them for ? and did you look to see if your coils had any cracks (people have had this hapen before) on them.
Do you have a FMIC?

The gap is usually preset but can be out of range from the factory. i would pull them out and get one of those 1$ gauges from Autozone and make sure they were all at the same setting. Secondly a Front Mount Inter Cooler or FMIC would have cylicone hoses that could have a leek.
Air Fuel Meter = AFM

if i slowly gas it will go with no choke. only when the turbo spool hard is when i get the choke. someone has told me that its my speed box unit but i doubt it. i dont want that to be the problem.

Dude i had this same issue i could go easy and excelerate so there was no missfire but if i punched it it would miss around 4-5. Re-gap our plugs to around .028. do this then let us know what ahppens

What size injectors are you running? You say you added a Lex AFM, but you don't say anything about upgrading the injectors along with it... which you need to.
