Damian,

Solved the problem. It was having severely oil fouled spark plugs on the left bank. Runs like a champ now.
MR. Vizard will explain it a ton better than I ever can

The dumbed down version is, your cam is meant to make good power N/A so cylinder pressures will reflect that, cycle compression will be higher, so add in boost, you either add octane, or pull timing and/or compression. Right now your compression, boost and engine is very much like a pro drag motor. They don't give much of a shit about "driveability" just "engine pressures".
