OK. Thank you all for the advice. I will do what JET suggested, I'm gonna turn down the boost and work from there. I'm pretty sure its a tuning issue. At about 4500 rpm, I would get 20 counts of knock, no matter how much more fuel I'd add. As soon as it hits about 4500rpm, in any gear above 1st, as long as I'm making boost, it jerks and knocks.

BUT... I did get a check engine light, it said Code 44. Ignition coil... This problem has been around for a bit, I replaced the ignition transistor pack thing (not the coil) and it seemed to go away. Could a faulty coil be one of the causes for this problem?

Could an ECU on the way to Shitsville cause any of this either... I've never replaced the caps...
