I agree with mark 850T,hair line crack or your ecu is cutting out the boost as there set to cut out at around 14psi threw standard BCV,mine some time's does it at 14 psi with 15G,no ecu re map or any thing,just a bleed valve ;-) Will look nice when you change the rims.

as far as the high end misfire, check to see if there is a crack in the IAC hard plastic tube/pipe under the throttle body cover. Mine had a crack in it, and when the boost pressure raised, it expanded the crack and made the car stutter a bit. Do yourself a favor and check to see if it has a hairline crack... word

i have done a bunch to my volvo 850 (sort of) and I really enjoy it. I am running speedtuning stage II ECU, IPD cat back, ipd strut brace, bilsteins, ipd top engine bushing, JR air filter, ipd anti-roll bars front and rear, the usual stuff. I like your ride... I am about to build up my page... check out what I suggested as far as the IAC tube... thanks
