No. Do not clean the maf. Dsm do not use a hot wire maf. Karmann vortex maf are SPECIFICALLY mentioned on maf cleaning chemicals. Do not use.I agree with dsmkauai, you should get the boost leaks all sorted out first.
also make sure your injectors are clean and the seals are good, you might also want to clean your maf with specialty cleaner.
also you should clean out the intercooler especially if the old turbo was leaking oil into the intake piping. [tip: gasoline cleans it out pretty good.]
im going to do a leek test and repair the one i know of when i get off work.only thing I have done to the car since I have had it is replaced the turbo repaired a couple wires.i bought it with the what looks like a lot done to it.i was told the engine is stock looks like different fuel injectors not sure if the fuel pump is upgraded it has a fuel pressure regulator lightweight flywheel after market intercooler im sure there might be a couple things im forgetting

I have stock injector and stock fuel pump, I can run 13-14lbs without any issues. You should be able to as well.
When you hit full boost what does your boost gauge say? I would set it between 12-14lbs until you have supporting mods.
it wont get to full boost it cuts out I will take it out and see what the true boost says when it cuts out when I get off work. im just running off my wastegate at the moment not sure what its set at would it be more than 14lbs
took it for a quick spin it starts cutting out around 5 lbs afr is 14

Wow, 14 AFR is leaning out quite a bit unless that's just "cruising". Is that 14 AFR when your WOT?
Have you noticed your manifold or turbo glowing? Any ticking?
What's your fuel pressure at?
Also, is that correct in your profile that you have ECMlink? If so, people might be able to help more with a log....
Do not clean the maf with maf cleaner. It says right on the can not to do so. Karmann Vortex maf (dsm) do not require a maf cleaner. They work with a hotwire (which does require cleaning).I agree with dsmkauai, you should get the boost leaks all sorted out first.
