    valve float at 4krpms and 3psi with good springs, probably not, but i'll check the springs, a bad spring could cause valve float.
    could be poor sealing valve, i'll check that.
    cam in straight up, runs too good under no boost conditions.
    fuel pressure, rock solid! a1000, -10 line everywhere, aero fpr.
    no maf
    i hope it's not ckp or wheel, that would suck!
    i don't think it's the wrong wheel, it would backfire and spit randomly and a lot more often.

    Do you remember when you had mine on the dyno? It ran good until you got on it and started sputtering. Turned out to be a burn plug wire.
