Do you have access to a coil pack to try?Also check the plug gap,At higher boost levels the cars like a smaller gap most people run em' at 32

I have the same thing happen only when i have the dump open , i think that it is normal though cause i dont feel anything is wrong with the car, it is because we are running open exhaust everything happens faster , that is the only reason i can think of everything else on my car is working perfectly so i know it cant be my coil. if it was you should be experiencing the same problems either with it open or closed i only get when it is open. but what the hell do i know

Cars have a mind of there own sometimes,I've seen alot of cars do things above 20psi that you never see below 20

change the plugs.

Any weakness between the ignition and the tip of the spark plug could cause your symptoms: Ignition? Coil? Wires? Plugs?

A failing MAF could give similar symptoms too.

Sometimes I'm embarrassed that my problems end up being the most basic items. Spent $200 on a miss at idle in my SLS. They scoped it and replaced the plugs. It ran fine for a while, then it was right back to missing. I checked the plug wires and found two wires with no current flow whatever (complete breaks in the wire filiments inside). New wires fixed it.

Do you have any parts to change out and see if it makes any difference?

Good Luck

Pop on the high end

Hi Southern,
You already have some very good suggestions regarding your problem, and I would verify fuel delivery, just to get it out of the way. What is the o2 sensor voltage when you are having this problem?
If fuel is ok, then we must consider ignition to be the culprit. When you uncork the exhaust, you flow more air, and hence demand more spark. A Good module, coilpak and wires and plugs are essential. I'm stating the obvious, but a lot of MY troubles have been due to overlooked items. Rule of thumb: Murphy rules!
Hope this helps...

Both times for me was the coil pack. Car drove fine until boost went north of 15. Last time, the coil pack tested ok via the OHM test, but popped once the weather cooled and boost hit 19 or so.

Change the plugs and the coil pack.
