Default boost issues

My car has been turboed for about 2 weeks and i have a couple promlems, my setup is stock b16a2 uberdata w/450cc injectors. t3 turbo with external wategate set to 7psi.

One problem is in full boost and in vetc the motor is cutting out like it is misefiring sounds like hitting the rev limiter. My plugs are gaped at .030, If I ease into boost at 3/4 throttle it will boost smootly and no hesatation. At full throttle my arf's are around 11.5. I am basiclly runing a base map.

Also I am running open wasegate and i faced the open end at the motor becase i didn't want exuast gasses going on to my a/c condensor, now i have black soot on my engine.

Finally it looks like my turbo is leaking oil has that happeded to any one else? It is new by the way.

If anyone has suggestion It would be helpfull. Thanks and try not to flame me to hard.

I agree with Jagojon3. You need to get the car tuned. I had the same issues with the base map I started with, and tuning cured everything. Locate where the turbo is leaking oil and fix it.

Not sure about your tuning issue, but go get a dumptube made and route it to the ground..

My rebuilt turbo did the same thing to after first startup, then stopped after a few minutes.. just a tad leaked around the housing part..
