Default cutting out under boost

I am have a slight problem I have had my turbo on for about 4 months now and just last week it started cutting out under boost and doesn't feel like my v-tec is working i have checked all the conections and grounds and pulled the codes off the ecu. Its like it has a rev- limiter at 7200 now and cuts in and out until that point, but then once in awhile it runs like a raped ape

anyone help or having the same problem?

Have you checked your oil pressure? Remember VTEC relies on good oil pressure. A buddy of mine has a stock GsR integra 4dr...and he was running low on oil...it would feel like VTEC wouldn't even ingage. That would be my first bet on trying to resolve your problem.

I have had this problem before. For me it was running too rich under load, and I had to reduce my gap to 0.028.
