Mine is doing the exact same thing.
New plugs
1.5 yrs on 034 HO coils
Only under max boost.  Very momentary brick wall shut down like rev
limiter....Flicker of the CEL
Any ideas out there?  Considering trying more coils as this was the same
symptom the HO cold cured when I bought them...
Thanks
Aaron
