I decatted mine with no issue (the boost cut may be a split hose or separate issue)

Decat will be fine, i'd get the bov replaced with a standard one for a start. Does the CEL pop up on the dash, if so I'd check for fault codes and check that's there's no knackered sensors.

it should really be mapped for the decat or at least checked, but the fact it is now hitting the boost cut kind of answers the question....
