Just got a problem with my GT4, drives fine if I dont plant the excellerator but when I do the car starts lagging. Cuts in and out and sounds like a rexy?? If anyone has a clue on what is happening let me know thanx....
Not boosted, pretty much stock.

Just on that, i can baby it up to boost (as in - increase the excellerator slowly without lag occuring)
Once i reach 190km/h lagg is on full time...

Replace your ignition components. Cap, rotor, leads and plugs.

sounds like its dropping a cylinder. i'd start by replacing the plugs. then test your leads with a multimeter (there's a how too on the topgunleads.com website), and replace the leads if they look to be stuffed.

190 hey, is this a JDM spec model by chance? Or even a JDM ecu.
Since thats where the speedcut is at.
