It sounds like it may be your computer, throttle position sensor (most likely), egr valve/sol or your ignition control module.

according to my obd2 guide it says "HO2S Bank 1 Sen 3 Heater Circuit High" which means your o2 sensor is bad. Bank 1 sensor 3 is which o2 sensor is the one that needs to be replaced.

Re: CUTTING OUT AT 2500 ISH

got it the fuel pump was generating sufficant pressure but was NOT genreating enough fule volume basicly we hooked a pressure gauge up and at idle i had 47 +- psi but when you increased the throttle or snaped it to wot the pressure droped to 20 psi because the engine was consuming more fuel than the pump could provide therefor starving the engine and thats why it would run at idle and 1/4 throttle and fell on its face at 2500 ish. thanks for everyones help
