I have had this problem since January, and have been reading other similar threads on this, but nothing seems to help my problem.
What happens is: When I go WOT, and it gets to around 3200rpms, a spot where the turbo would normally spool, it starts to bog, and accelerates really slow. It started to do this one night just randomly, I didn't change anything about the car, nor did I hit anything that would cause a boost leak.
Now, here is what I know about the problem:
1. It does it 100% of the time at 16+ PSI
2. It only does it about 30% of the time at less than 14psi.
3. At 14 psi, it sometimes breaks up and stubles, but catches again.
4. The boost gauge reads the way it is supposed to at the appropriate time. (like if I set the boost to 25psi, it reads 25psi.)
5. It really only does it at over 3/4 throttle.
6. The car was dyno tuned with the current setup.
