If I mash the gas down at any speed it will sputter for like a second and then get up on boost just healthy. It sounds like it almost wants to die. Does it from a dead stop too if if mash the gas. It's runnig 20psi with 41psi off of idle on 100 octane.
 
mine does the exact same thing. another tr we had also did the exact same thing. i've heard of others doing the same thing. i think its a common problem with many of these cars. its really not a big problem though.

insted of just flooring it ease into the throttle. the car wont' try to die on you, and you'll have less chance of tire spin.
if anyone has a cure i'd like to hear it.
 
check out your maf. Mine did the same thing. Now I can mash it from dead stop and spin instantly.
 
I will check it out I do have the stock maf on their. What readings should I be looking for if I scan tool it? Might be kind of hard to spin some m/t et streets but would be fun haha.
