There is only one sensor ground and ignitor.

Add boost cut to the top of your list.

kinda sounds like boost cut to me too since its higher rpm in lower gears. also try gapping your plugs down more. my car had a problem kinda like that on the dyno. the plugs were at .025". i put them at .018" and the problem went away

I changed plugs to a spare set of the same type that I had and the gap between plug sets changed from .028 to .025, and now it dies at 5.5K rpms in 2nd and 5K rpms in 3rd and 4th still.

Finish the rest of the tuneup. Cheap cap/rotor gets you by, but you HAVE to use OEM aka NGK plug wires. Don't worry, they are only $35-50 depending on where you go and don't suck ---- like the MSD/etc wires for twice the price.

Re: car falls flat on its face at full boost
 
someone explain to this complex faggot that I don't have a Honda, and most boosted foci run a .025-.035 gap. going from a .028 to .025 made things worse, so why would i drop even lower to .018?
