Default Car choking at full boost

So I am running a trackforge kit, garrett GTX3076R, tuned by church automotive. After a 400 mile drive to Norcal, everytime I open the throttle in 3-6 gear at full boost the car will start choking around 6700 rpm and wont rev higher than that. Any help on where to start looking will be much appreciated.

Could be anything, but how old and many miles are your coils.

Feel like "hitting a wall" so to speak? Could be fuel cut for whatever reason.

It can be a various of things. I would start off with the basics (checking the gap on the plugs & etc).

Your car was probably hitting boost cut.
