High rpm Hesitation 1jzgte

how long have you had this 1jz??
the closed loop for an ecu is up to about 4-5k -- which is where you state the car starts to hesitate.. but when you check your plugs.. they are all black and sooty.. which could indicate the vehicle is being flooded/running rich.
Id almost want to guess you have larger injectors in there and without any engine management when the ecu goes into open loop.. it doenst have the ability to compensate for the larger injectors and therefore you are running extremely rich..
but if youve had the 1j for a long while and this problem didnt exist before but it does now.. then thats most definately not the problem.

that will give you a good idea what closed vs open is/means.

once you get things sorted out, and you are still running stock, use the plugs designed for the car.
DENSO Toyota Part number 90919-01180 PK20R8
NGK Toyota Part Number 90919-01181 BKR6EP-8
or anything as such the same as the above ^ try not to go colder or hotter or with a different gap, as you said your running stock - and theres no need to change anything with the pregapped plugs the motor was designed to run on.
As for your problem, I can only assume its the coil pack or you dont have a plug actually connected all the way. you really gotta push em back in.

A "colder" plug literally dissipates heat better than a "hot" plug. You want to match the heat range with the temperature your engine is going to see.
The danger of running a plug too hot is pre ignition and detonation becuase the spark plug gets too hot and can't dissipate the heat.
The danger of running a plug too cold is bad ignition while getting the car warmed up.
Toyota calls for a heat range 6 plug for the stock 8.5:1 compression ratio and 9psi. If you increase your boost you effectively raise the compression ratio which raises the temps, so you want to run a colder plug to prevent the plug from getting too hot and causing preignition/det

Don't try another ECU. It's a waste of time. They are identical except the A/T control is integrated into the case. As far as engine function they are identical.
The A430 A/T trans is electronically controlled. This means there is no engine ECU "Timing Dip", because the Trans has it's own control. It doesn't need the Engine ECU to do anything except run the engine.
Just make sure you have NGK coppers, NOT Iridiums, gapped to stock, and make sure that your Ignition is up to par.
It sounds like fuel cut, but if your plugs are black your ignition is not running the way it needs to. Get it all up to stock again.
