Default When do you need and Ignition upgrade??

Alright, my setup consists of hondata s200 tuned, stock gsr, 60/.63 trim t3t4e, intercooled, maxrev manifold, NGK blue wires and bcpr7es-11 plugs, and running about 10 psi at full throttle..

my problem arises when at 90-100% full throttle, the motor seems to cut out and sputters.. to me it definately feels and seems like the ignition spark is being blown out.. i suspect this because after i regapped the plugs from about .030 to .019, the full-throttle symptoms went away... there was a negative affect to this as well, which was the idle.. it sounded horible and seemed to be fighting to stay alive...

what do you guys think is the problem, and if its definately the ignition system, what can I do to solve the problem w/o regapping the plugs.?? btw, I never experienced this on my LS setup last yr...

from what i hear the stock ignition is good up to about 450hp.Have you tried any other gaps? maybe a little larger? At 10psi you shouldn't have a problem with the spark being blown out esp at that gap (.032)....i run 9.5 psi and a gap of .034 with no problem
