If you figure it out let me know. I hv to replace my wastegate actuator on my XR4Ti but not i am thinking i need coild cap rotor plugs and wires. I'll probably just do the cap and wires first. Also if you have a fuel pressure regulator issue it could be you car is starving for fuel and that would cause it to lag under boost conditions. i would get the regulator and then go from there.
