Default HELP strange power cut please HELP

Hi to you I need your HELP PLEASE all i haven’t been writing over here because I was busy rebuilding my motor after i destroyed three pistons.
make a story short and the rebuilt is done , i took the car to the dyno and didn’t have one clean nor decent run tell know , my car is a corvette twin turbo LPE last i have made with it was 672WHP dyno jet with old set up.

PLEASE HELP ME , now i am in a big dilemma and i am lost , while the car is on the dyno and i am WOT to do a tune the car starts very smooth and accelerates great all the way up to about 4K RPM and some times 5K RPM and it cuts in a very strange way you can have a look at the video here under at the minute 1:01
You can see that something very strange happens and the check engine comes on for a moment and then disappears ??????????????????

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc3AiiiHO1k

Some thought was to a faulty Crank sensor, some a faulty Camshaft sensor, and some to faulty MAP sensor , when i did the DTC with the HP tuner it showed a miss fire but not permanent HELP

Here in video 2 you can see the tacho meter bouncing at about 5Krpm or so but the car did not CUT like it did the last couple of times but the tach bounced any gusses any takes HELP PLEASE

thanks


Please note this same thred was posted to COREVETTEFORUM

Does it say reduced engine power on the diplay? Pretty common in a FI drive by wire car.

Do you have a fuel pressure gauge on the car? What does it do?

you may have a cracked spark plug or a bad wire. a lot of the time that will only give you issues at high rpm or under load and show no signs of damage at idle or low speed.

He changed the Wires before the dyno we thought about that and spark plugs are brand new.

Rev Limiter is set at 6800rpm I believe BTW it was KM/H not MPH.

The run just before this the car pulled hard to 6800rpm with great power and NO problems at all.

when you changed the wires did you have trouble getting any of them off?
