Could be that, maybe bad injector, coils, possibly the plugs. I had to replace mine the other day because my car blew up a plug and it obviously misfired and i had no power

On stock tune 15-18psi it might back fire once. On the trifecta tune 23-24psi is where it just pops and back fires as soon as it builds all boost.

Yes thats the filter IM talking about, because i think i ran into some bad gas and my filter has 36,000 on it. The filter is located under the car on the back of the tank not in the tank.
