Help needed .Strange engine?/fuel?/boost? cutout

Hello Guys recently i got problems with my boost controller and i managed to fix them but now i have the following problem...when on 4th and 5th gear boost level reach around 1.06-1.07 engine or fuel i can not define what is it exactly cut out for a second and after that it continues gaining boost...and this happens sometimes...sometimes it does not happen....car was bought and tuned in UK and it is driven in Bulgaria...could it be bad fuel...cos here fuel is not as good as in UK...please give me some clue because no body else can help me

Have you checked the spark plugs and coil packs?

no still have not checked them...cos i thought i could not be from them it seemed strange to me ...the problem occurs only at particular boost level....lower than which does not ...what should i look for ....dirty plugs...i guess...but what about coil packs i am not familiar with them...i had a honda and it has not got coil packs

Hello Guys today I did some work ...i took off all of the spark plugs to check then ....they are fine ....the coil pack are split fires...and also look very good ...took off the Idle valve ...cleaned it ...i also have some bouncing idle sometimes..after hard driving there is no problem......like 600-700-800-850-750....what could cause this when i have cleaned the ACC..is it possible that the spark plugs at low Idle can not handle with the rich fuel mixture and od this ?.....is it possible to be the AFM...i think i has been changed...cos there was something done to the pins and i had to resolder them back

What RON is your fuel?

I would be careful about turning up the boost if your fuel is any less than 99ron. If it is lower then you should get the car re-mapped to suit your fuel before you melt a piston.

Sorry man i don't know what RON stands for....I am driving with OMV 100 octane ....but is it 100octane only they know...I'm thinking of using octane booster and to check the Air/Fuel Ratio....about the remaping....i highly doubt that that there is anyone who could re-map skyline ecu in my country ....and boost have not been turned up.It is the way it was set
