Default spark blow out using microtech and 6psi update -problem found

hello guys i have a friend that has a 2000 integra type r and he has boosted it. he is using microtech and cant rev more than 7000rpm then the spark starts to cut out. i have heard that the microtech system has a few issues with the ignition system. has anyone encountered this problem?

If you havent gapped your plugs closer already, try it. Try .028 and see how that does, when I was only running 7lbs on my B20 I had spark blowout after like the 5th run, I was like WTF my ignition sucks lol. Good luck!

What do the plugs look like? Also what heat range plugs are you running? Is it happening at the same rpm all the time?

plugs look fine. and the gap is set to 0.028 and its starts doing it at 7000rpm. it did this at the same rev range even before the ignition gear was added
