I've pretty much had it with DSM's this car always has some f'n issue, some small some larger.

well tonight my car started (( i dont even know the word for it )) bogging? bucking? miss-fireing?

I'll be boosting and at about 35-45mpg around 10psi or so and my car seems like it cuts the boost out, and my car bucks (not hard but deffinately noticeable). then it gets back into boost. Think i need new spark plugs? i havnt changed them in almost 2 years :toobad: kinda slipped my mind.

Please guys!! any help would be MUCH appriciated, i want to sell the gsx for a family vehicle soon:sosad:

If you think you need new spark plugs, then just change them. Also, get new spark plug wires and do a boost leak test.
 
ok, NGK BPR6ES spark plugs gapped to .028 are good for an almost stock setup yes?

what kind of wires should i get? i want cheap, im just gunna sell it soon.
 
Everytime my car bucks on me I check out the ignition system last and that is always what it is. Plugs, wires (order), coil, wiring. But I'd also check your CEL's, mass air flow sensor, knock,timing, and your tune if you have a logging device.
