Or too much fuel on top end. I really think you need to get on a dyno and do some wide band monitor readings. What do you egt's look like?

How much ignition can the factory knock sensor pull? Maybe your knock sensor is yanking all the ignition timing.

Most likely though, its going lean. Be careful......
