Default turbocharged and just started stalling/surging at high RPM

Just as the title says my accord is turbocharged and has been doing fine until today. At around 4000RPM under boost in D3 gear is surges in reverse like it tries to quit and i let off of it. Suggestions? My injectors are OEM so im wondering if one or all of them are on their way out?

could very well be maxing out the injectors. Was any part of the fuel system upgraded prior boosting ?

it depends on your power output but ive seen people run stock injectors.

at least get some used dsms, ive seen them as low as $35.

what ems are you running ?

also what do you have the plugs gapped at ? you could be blowing out spark if they arent gapped tight enough.

could have blown the tranny too.. if your under 220whp you might be ok with proper cooling, but if your over forget it.. the clutches will fail.

Well the injectors are OEM. but i've also noticed that the car shudders at 1500RPM exactly. I have a greddy emange for ems. When im in neutral the car shudders at 1500 also.

I've already got some used 450 injectors. As far as my power output im running 5lbs. but it dosent feel like im over 250. i could be wrong though. never had it dynoed.

How much of a difference powerwise is the 5 PSI making compared to the stock output?

I'm thinking of going turbo, but Know about the piston ringland problem, so I'm keeping the boost around 8-9 PSI on all stock internal engine.

if done right your looking at between 70+ HP increase over stock.
