fuel starvation even in a straight line

Hello subaru gurus,

I'm having fuel starvation issues since the install of my Walbro fuel pump . When my gas tank is anything BELOW 3/4 FULL, it runs into fuel starvation issues when I'm 3/4-WOT. Usually, this appears right at the 5200rpm mark. Btw, when I have the issue, it's not even in the middle of a turn. Pure straight away!

Your help is greatly appreciated.

I'm currently running a accessport upgrade map from PDX

what do you mean by fuel starvation? like fuel cuts off?

well either way, with these type of mods I always feel its much better to get a custom dyno tune and NOT just using base upgrade maps. IMO those maps just allow the car to drive you to a proper tune

What car and engine, and what supporting mods?

Did you use the stock WRX/STi filter or the one that came with the Walbro?
