I'm not sure if it is the same problem. But, I have a lean condition while entering boost under the same conditions as yours. I think tuning is my issue, I just haven't found the fix.

Not sure, I'll have to see if there is a correlation hot or cold.

You shouldn't run stock springs, change them.

Why would I have to retune by replacing my valve springs? Everthing on the current tune looks good.

Well I FINALLY FIXED THE PROBLEM, I was just got back from college and did a good check on everything I noticed right before the a vacuum line coming off the t feeding the boost contoller was ripped, so I simply put a new line in and whatdu know, NO MORE BACK FIRING THANK GOD THANKS FOR EVERYONE WHO TRIED TO HELP ME OUT, AND THE VALVE SPRINGS ARE GOING IN SOON. I guess excess air was getting in the exhaust or something.
