Default need some tech help with my car hesitating

hey everyone,
well i have a problem with my car, at around 5-6k rpm my motor starts to hesitate. it starts shaking and feels like the car wants to cut off on me. it happens when i punch it and when the vtec kicks in.
my setup is:

b16a, jun3 cams, skunk2 gears, 70mm tb, portmatched itr manifold, b&m fpr (50psi), dc jdm 4-1 header, stock block. chipped p28 ericks racing ecu.

i was thinking it could be the fuel but i wouldnt know . the car also sounds really shitty when i start it off a cold start.

help is needed thanks

cold starts with jun 3's and a chipped ecu will always suck

im not sure about your car hesitating check your oil if its low vtec might be stumbling causing the whole motor to stumble/fall on its face

I would have to sayfuel too. You got the air flow goin, but whenyu need some fuel, theres none there to mix and your engines gaspin for it.
