Default boosting issues

my ---- is acting up on me, if i try to crank the boost over 7psi the car will start popping and breaking up and stuff. the set up is
d16z6, t25 turbo, starion ic, dsm 450's, crome p06 ecu w/o vtec.

i've checked all my fuel lines and made sure i did it right, i changed spark plug wires, plugs, cap and rotor. someone told me it might be my whole distributor. wht do you guys think?
