yesterday i installed my blow thru setup and now when i hit boost anything over 10 psi my car kicks and looses all power....i tried to tune the maft the best i could and left my safc settings as they were from before the install.....what could be causing this?

i tuned the base and idle on the maft but left the mid and wot zeroed out. is this ok? and just tune the mid/high with the safc?

but what would cause the kicking?
 
Could eather be a boost leak problem.
Check your Injector Duty Cycles to make sure that they look good to.

I use to have this problem but I cant remember exactly what it was. I think I had a massive boost leak at my TB and once I had the Gaskets replaced that fixed it. Might not be the same problem for you but just do a Leak Test and see what happens.
