well, im having hesitation problems wit hthe beast now... I have done the easy, plugs, wires, cleaned my K&N, and replaced the fuel filter. heres what happens.. mainly the problem is in fifth gear where full boost is attained but no acceleration happens... you can feel it sputter and want to go, but i have to downshift and keep it in vaccuum to do hills... 1,2,3 are all good but you can still feel the hesitation under boost

any ideas???

Try this, with the engine running, spray a mist of water over your intake
runners going to the cylinder heads. If your engine stalls or runs very
rough, you have a intake leak. This is not necessarily the best test for
it. I had a very similar problem and turned out to be leaking intake
gaskets, under pressure, the air leaked out causing lack off turbo boost. I
replaced the gaskets and the car runs perfect now.
