have you tried putting on the OE recirc valve , is it a big jerk
went in a car which hit fuel cut and nearly went through the window - my faulty vta caused rough bump ride as you let off the gas
plugs \ coil pack maybe

1BAR IS ABOUT 14PSI ISNT IT?
well all i can think mate is check everywhere for air leaks, (all boost hoses and the gauge hose).
then clean the airflow sensor (be very very careful) is is easy to brake.
try turning the boost down a take to around 0.8 bar and see if it still does it.
If you have a dump valve, just try the car without it, it may be leaking under high boost.
apart from that mate I dunno, i bought a fcd but never fitted it cos i heard horror stories

fuel cut on your car comes in at 1.05 bar boost so its very possible that you could have that
the other thing that causes this problem on your model car is the coil packs, take out the coil packs and pull the rubber boot off the end of them.
if the ends are cracked or broken off this is the problem.
hope this helps
