Default Car is cutting out? HELP!

The short story. I have a 92 vx with a 95 gsr motor/ trans. 60-17 turbo, stock ecu, 310 injectors, 6 lbs boost. nos fuel pump, str fuel rail. When the car gets warmed up, in any gear, running at a 1/4 throttle or more. The fuel on my air/fuel gauge cuts completely out as the car falls on its face. And i press all the way to 1/2-3/4 throttle before it surges back. any ideas, Thanks

that's why

get your ecu chipped for 310 injectors and go it tuned

and them injectors are to small for a turbo car get some 550's or bigger

it has a vafc. it was tuned on the street, by my turbo guy. not on a dyno. it ran like a champ for 3-4 years. i am fixing to upgrade to a s300,with bigger injectors, but i would like to figure out my problem instead of covering up or creating more problems.

Sounds like you're not getting enough fuel, get it chipped at least.
