Would if i still had them. My boost days were back in 2007 before PTUNING came into the scene when it was only Dezod VS ZPI. Next year when i get back to the states i'll be back into the boost scene

I just saw this thread.

I can tune you if you want. I rarely have free time but I'm sure we can work something out. I tune with an OBDII datalogger too so your fuel trims will be nice and tight.

It was happening before I changed the plugs

This is def a tune issue then, or maybe a fuel issue. Check your o-rings on your injectors. What kind of AFR's are you looking at when it bogs? My course of action would be a fuel system inspection, maf wiring harness inspection, re-tune, then if that dosen't help, a maf replacement.
