Backfire on Full Throttle

For the last month my car has been stuttering/backfiring at Full throttle. Usually happens at 5-7k RPM in any gear. It's a weird sensation and I cannot find anything online relating to the same issue. I've tried different tune maps and It seems to remedy the issue with the cost of performance. My car doesn't do It every time I go full throttle, but it happens enough for me to be worried I am damaging my car. Recently, the transmission, spark plugs, and turbo have been replaced.

Figured I'd ask the forums before I take it to a local shop.

Mods:
Muffler Delete
Cat-less DP
Active Autowerke Flash tune
Charge pipe
FMIC

Thanks,

Do you have the ability to data log? That would be the easiest way to pin point it.

Definitely something related to tune/software, spark/coil, or fuel.

I'm unsure if the software that came with my tune would be able to log the data, is there a thing u would suggest that i purchase to get such logs?

What interface does AA use to flash the car? Windows tablet?

I would give them a call and ask about logging. They will know

AA sent me a program and a file to flash through a windows computer. I'll contact them and see what they can do for me. Thanks!
