    Ws6 backfires and shuts down at 5000rpms

    anyone ever had this problem?
    the car is dyno tune and ran perfect. this happened all of a sudden. The car starts up fine and idles & cruies fine. But when the car gets to about 5000 it will backfire and shut off. Its starts right back up though perfectly.

    fuel pressure is 58psi
    new crank sensor installed
    grounds checked
