every time.
regapped plugs and its been fine since.

my guess is its blowing out spark.

exactly as it sounds, the spark produced by the spark plug is being blown out instead of igniting the mixture.
small plug gap or stronger spark will make this less likely.

isnt the limitation on stock ECU/map sensor about 9-10psi?
i think the stock ecu has a cut out.
