A couple of times recently ive experienced a temporary partial loss of boost down from roughly 13psi to 8psi. it boosts fine up to 8psi then holds back. only lasts for about 10 minutes. only happened a couple of times and I just drive very slowly and it clears itself.

It’s an virtually unmodded 1995 WRX just an HKS hyper exhaust.

Any ideas what it could be, im a bit crap when it comes to engines.
