What octane fuel do you use when spraying. Its definately detonation. But it may be from too much timing (atap it)...a fule issue (check your fuel pressure)..or an octane issue. If you use 87 or 89 octane put some 93 in it and try again.

Better yet...autotap on a dyno with a wideband if possible.

Sounds like it is not getting enought fuel to me!!. do u have an upgraded fuel system ? If not you should think about larger injectors and fuel rails. Switching to a wet kit could also help.

Is it popping off your intake tube then it cannot read the maf anymore? Is the nozzle pointed straight at the manifold? You are running 91oct at least right?

Switch to a wet shot. It is safer and trust me will give you a ton more torque to the wheels
