check valves you need 3+ I had 2 and mine freaked out. You could be leaning WAY out! I was too and mine would do the same thing, but I had the 8:1 fmu and 255 walboro. but as they stated it could be alot of other things. also plug gap, I have mine at .26 also check your cap and rotor. check that stuff and get back to us. post up pics of your setup.

I would assume it's going into limp mode, depending on the amount of boost running and how many check valves you're using. :-\

I wouldn't think it were the oxygen sensor.

I don't think you need anymore than three check valves.

It could possibly be the VTEC solenoid at the higher RPM range where you said the check engine light is coming on. I'm not sure.

Pictures would really help by now.
