Either spark breakup or fuel cut. My guess is fuel cut. You're probably exceeding the load limit values in your ECU. From the factory they are pretty low so any turn-up to 22-23psi will cause you to hit fuel cut.

You need to flash your ECU with a higher load limit, or preferably just get tuned. While you're at it, apply mrfred's O2 simulator patch and acamus' OBD inspection patch to force all tests to pass.
