    MAF voltages are usual culprits, need to see if you are exceeding 3.7 V bellow 2,500 RPM or 3.99 V bellow 3,000 RPM.
    One thing you do need to consider is the so called boost spike, anything over 17.9-18 psi and you'll get instant limp.The trouble is that this has the tendency to happen in 3rd gear uphill under the harder acceleration. I can almost reproduce it in another words I know I need to back off a little once I hit 2,700 RPM. Back off Dawes so your max spike doesn't pass 16 psi.

    Cheers
