It's the Ecu thinking your car is over boosting, I'm fitting a Dawes Fuel lifter today, HKS sell a FCD-Fuel cut defencer, the dawes is mechanical, I run optimax, I'd recommend a AFR gauge or again the dawes electronic, which i'm also fitting today, can't wait more boost pleaseeee, after that knocklink, uprated fuel pump, all adjusted from a HKS evc

Must be a common problem m8 I am experienceing the same and I am going for the dawes device as it takes control of the turbo from the ECU and also cuts out the boost solenoid.
only £30 worth a shot !
