Help me fix my hesitation and cut out!

If there are no codes present, you might just have a boost leak. They can be tricky to find. It sounds like it's only happening under boost. You can also check the spark plugs if you haven't changed them in awhile.

Do you have a wideband installed? Is the AFR spiking past 20:1 when this happens? Have you done any tuning? If so, what?

I don't have a wideband, but I will be getting one. (Recomindations are valued). And as far as tuning I have the maft pro, and everything is set to what the manual says.

The manual doesn't cover how to tune or any significant fuel adjustments... look to see if the mainscale is anything other than 0 and check to see if the fuel "tune" maps are all zeroed out or not. I know you have a MAFT Pro and it's safe to say I know a tiny bit about them.

I don't have the manual for the translator, the car came with everything but that when I bought it. I found everytging I know about it online.

So, could you breifly explain the main scale adjustment? I think I know which ones your talking about for the fuel tune ones.

Also, when the car is running, the tps, o2, and spark all show 0 and don't change... should they?

Here's an old website of mine with some documentation I put together on the system as well as other electronics info: http://www.fadingworld.com/CRE/Autom...ra/Electrical/

This will get you started. I've also got two versions of the manual for the MAFT Pro mirrored on there; You may find a newer version on the FullThrottleTech.com forum as well as firmware updates. For running MAF I don't know of any significant updates worth worrying about right away, so probably best not to screw with it right now.
