My car is having some loading up issues. I have NO boost leaks and I have some oem wires on right now to replace my bad ones and NGK br7's. I have a bad boost creep problem. 14b full exhaust, afpr, intercooler piping and walbro 255.

Issue: It loads up until around 2500 rpm in every gear and then it seems fine. I will hit boost and it will just run slower than in vacuum. Here is an example:
I am at 40mph cruising in 4th gear, then I start going up a hill. At this point I am around 2100 rpms. I am running fine when I am still in vacuum and then I hit 2psi (for example) and it seems to run slower and hold back. Then I hit 2500 rpms, then it clears up and run fine (even if I am still only hitting 2psi)
 
Sounds like the car is just pulling all the timing. You have a 2g with a 14b? Anyway of tuning the car?

Yes a 2g with a 14b. I will borrow my friends pocket logger sometime and check.

sounds like you need a pocket logger to see if you are pulling timing. It's a really handy diagnostic tool. How did u test for boost leaks?

Boost leak tester. I found 2 (one of the injector insulators, and tb to intercooler piping)
