Default Boost Problems

When I'm at a lower RPM and I get on it a little my boost shoots upto 15 and drops and keeps going upto 15 and then back down rapededly. But if im at a higher RPM or am getting on it from the lonch it doesnt do this to me. If anyone one can help me out it would be sweet. If it helps I have IC piping, HKS BOV, cold air, solid motor mounts and trany mount.

stop flooring it from a low rpm and it won't be a problem. you shouldn't be doing that anyway.

This problem i had aswell at 1/4-1/2 throttle. what happens is your boost spikes and blows out the spark at low rpm, the plugs dodge used feel like they are the wrong heat range. get a set of NGK iridium plugs and a new set of MSD wires and this problem will go away
Almost entirely. Also If you know you want to get into it alittle just down shift to bring your r's up and you wont sputter. Hope this will help.

Get the MSD wires, the Mopar Performance plug wires, while being slightly better than stock, are far from what the MSD's are. This alone should cure your problem if it's a spark issue, unless the plug gap is too wide and causing the problem and even then the MSD wires might let enough spark energy through to stop your problem.
