Ok so my new found dsm problem. when i first start my car it hesitates after 2000 rpm even through boost. it happens when completely cold or just sitting for 5 min. did a BLT and no leaks, new plugs and wires, and new tps idk where to go?
 
I have a similar problem and here are a few suggestions I picked up. Use NGK bpr63s plugs gapped at .028. Definitely check plug wires and change if they are bad which you have already covered. Check your timing, change your fuel filter, clean your injectors and even cleaning the throttle body. I hope some of that helps. I will be changing my plugs and fuel filter tonight to see if that helps. Good Luck.
 
i have the stock maf on now. Noav ive done everything but timing, im gonna go pull my plugs now
 
is the car a 1g or a 2g?

check for leaks on the intake between the turbo and maf.

is it 2k rpm exactly every time no matter what the load?
 
stock except 16g. 92 gsx. i believe its an maf issue i put another one in and it seems to be running fine other then the maf has no honey combs in it. but my data logger is on the way so i can get my gm maf hooked up.
