I keep hereing about static fuel pressure causing lean conditions from 0 to 3psi of boost. Try raising your static fuel pressure a bit and see if it helps. Do you here any detonation? Did you retard/advance your timing? Do you have any hesitation or drivability problems? Need more to go on.

How long have you been running on the plugs?
