You are losing fuel pressure. Stay out of it until you get it fixed.

He says it cuts out, and you automatically know its a fuel pressure issue.... that's quite a talent you have there.

What did you gap the plugs at?

Do you have a fuel pressure gauges in the car?

have you logged pressure drop across the injectors?

are you running a wideband in the car?

do you have a dyno graph that clearly shows the A/F ratio?

Wait what?

are you saying the the fuel pumps are close to 100% duty cycle? if not you should log it.

when the car cuts out have you watched the wideband to see what happens, or have a friend do so (550rwhp and not watching the road isn't the best idea)

Well at 30 on the boost a pump the car would drop pressure but at 50 it was fine but I know it is maxed out. But I think I have it fixed I messed with the boost a pump wiring to make sure all was hooked up fine and pulled the ecu took the chip out put the chip back in and put tape over the chip to make sure it was not moving. Now the car is fine I could not get the car to cut out.
