Default Boost Cut???? WTF

sometimes everything shuts off when i floor my car, once i release the gas everything back to normal. only does this sometimes. people have told me this is boost cut. what else can cause that??? **** me off. really annoying when it happens. everytime is happens my eyes are never on the boost gauge so cant tell if im over boosting. everytime i floor it with my eyes on the boost gauge, it never happens. never. only unexpectedly.

if it is over boosting whats causing this?? waste gate not opening? boost controller set too high??? ive tried turning the mbc down everytime it happens but still happens down the line.

at first i thought its because of my boost source. i had the internal wastegate hooked up to the back of my intake manifold. so with that in mind i bought that quick tap from http://www.atpturbo.com/Mercha...e=BCS. worked really good. thought it fixed the problem. went 2 weeks flooring my car everyday never happened until yesterday. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

now im thinking about changing the boost cut sensitivity on my hondata?? or maybe upgrade to a external wastegate?????

is this even over boosting???? i dunno.... help me out. **** really ruins my day.
