Default car sputtering b4 boost

I have searched and found nothing on my problem. Ok My car is sputtering when i give it some gas and it will start jerking a little. I have replaced the spark plugs there new NGK -11's Plug wires are almost new. Fuel wise I am running of off a FMU and a inline fuel pump all lines seem to be fine. The fpr is a B&M. Stock injectors. I only seem to have this problem when I boost alot im boosting at 7psi. The Turbo is a Drag 3 kit 38mm Tail wastegate. ( It only sputters until it reaches boost levels)

what is your fuel pressure at? sounds like you are bogging the engine with too much gas, and then when you hit boost the engine consumes it all so it runs normal. get it tuned, ditch the FMU

Ditto. Look in to uberdata or something similar or a Hondata if you can afford it and a set of injectors. Tuning will make all the difference in the world.

i'd check connections on the fmu. what fuel psi are u running at? and I'd also recommending gettin rid of the fmu and go with larger injectors and some sort of ems.
