Default New Distibutor Problem

Hey guys, a few days ago i just installed a new MSD Distributor on my '98, it does have a swap though, a B18C block/B16 head.
Now whenever i get to about 3,400 RPMs in second gear, my the engine starts to drop in RPMs suddenly. I took it for a run yesterday and and the engine just shuts off when i hit the same RPMs.
It still starts and everything adn runs but i can't go over 3,400 RPMS in 2nd anymore. I tried taking out the new one and throwing the stock back in and it worked fine. The manual said it was designed for the motor i have and everything.
Now i must say i do have this car chipped so i dont know if that could be a problem.
Thanks in advance!
