Suddenly ignition cut, Log inside

Hi
My car has gotten suddenly ignition cut and I haven’t done anything with it.
The problem starts above 5k RPM, it’s like the car struggle for air or fuel.
I don’t get the problem if I rev the engine standing still. Only when driving
The boost are fine also and lies about 22-23 PSI

I attach evoscan log as I don’t understand all the numbers so far 
I renamed it to txt

Mods done to the car
ECUTEK
Full exhaust
Walbro 255
Open air filter

I don't see anything in the log to explain your problem.

Well when cursing under 5k RPM the car goes great but as soon I get over 5k it get like a hiccup, and it feels almost like boost cut I had before the tune, but not exactly like it. If fells like the ignition but I don’t know, its sound like fire crackers on new year…

It can be the spark plugs to, I need to check that this weekend. But there are new HKS that’s only made a couple hundred miles

There possibly lies your problem. Put the stock ones back in

Did you get a 0300?

A messed up ignition pulse wont show up on the scanner but a 0300 fault would almost confirm bad spark

edit: just saw that you don't have an airbox. nevermind.

did you happen to forget to put the plastic keepers back on your airbox snorkel??

i have heard that will cause similar symptoms. your snorkel gets sucked up onto your hood and the car cant get air.

Do you mean in evoscan or what ?
I was way to stressed to look at it, just hit start logger and stop then ran in to upload,
My laptop died 1min after I got in, no battery left.

Yes I will check them tomorrow, if the fault lies with the HKS plugs I will throw them back at the tuner. I really don’t like denso, have seen to many faults with them.

Does NGK make plugs for the IX yet?

If they do get those, i've never had a problem and i've had them gapped down to as low as .020 and had them last 10k miles.

I haven’t seen colder than the standard 7 on the NGK but I will look at it , the standard ones are iridium 7 but I want at least 8 or 9.

Because your car accelerated through 4250 - 6250 rpm in just 2.1 seconds - about 0.5 seconds fast for basic bolt on IX's

Yes I meant EvoScan

5 speed?

4250 - 6250 rpm in just 2.1 second is extreem for a 5speed I was considering, but now I know it's a 6 speed - still for a 6speed I guess it's fast too - 12.1 ET not bad at all - 23 psi, was that on 94 octane?

Anyhow what did you find was the cause?
