I have an RB20, with a FMIC, walbro fuel pump and exhaust.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akPSLxk4R28Here is a link to a video of me pressing the gas peddle and when It makes it to 2k the RPMs drop about 500 and go back to 2k.

Ive changed the ECT sensor, O2 sensor, spark plugs, and checked to make sure all plugs were connected in the engine bay.

Ive ordered a NISMO AFPR.

Can anybody tell me what I need to do fix my problem?

Pape,

Are there any lights on your ECU, are you receiving any errors or CEL codes?

Sorry, it seems dumb, but I just wanted to check first.
