Default Fuel/ boost cut after remap

What's the best method to deal with fuel cut? Since a remap last year the car has been really lumpy to drive. Uprated fuel pump? 3 port boost solenoid? Fuel cut defender? Or just reduce boost?
I didn't expect such a poor drive after mapping.
Thanks

best method is a decent map, should have taken it straight back because it's not right.

Get the map looked at

^^^exactly this^^^
If the boost map isn't right,the rest of the map may well be bad and detting it's **** off?

I emailed the tuner immediately but got no reply....then let it drift. 9 months on I'll probably have to pay for a tweek

One of the best in the game(I'm not speaking from experience tho as I've never use him),I'm sure if you rang him and gave him chance to have a look the he would sort it out.
Could just be a split pipe causing overboost?

Yes, could be all sorts, I've cracked on and mailed Alan, left it for far too long, but been recovering from illness, moving house, and major building project. Thanks for advice.
