Default um engine help

hello

got another problem again just wonder any 1 can help

i put me engine to gether got me car all sorted and she on the road now, im running it in still tho. iv done 600 miles at the min going to 2 do a 1000.

iv got .50 overside pistion
a front mount on and a K&N air filter on at the mo with 1.6mm head gaskets.

i was drivin the other day and reved it to 3500 rpm and it sort off miss fired. so i tryed it again and it just doesnt want to go if that make sence.
you put ur foot down say and wen it goes over 3500rpm it doesnt pull any more. the higher the gear and more power u need it gets lower, 3000 rpm in 5th gear say it starts to do it.

is this coz my turbo is running out of guts, coz its got more pipe to fill then a standard top mount or is the maf not reading properely or a boost leak?

thanks for any help.

3.5 rpm? Limp mode? You got a CEL? Might need to clear ECU error codes if you've had misfire codes.
