Try cleaning the boost solenoid, if its clogged then that can make you get overboost

When you say its cutting out, is it a rapid cutting of power or is it like hitting a wall and all power goes for a second or 2?

Or
like hitting a wall and losing all power for a second or 2

When it cuts out, are you hitting the boost hard or is it during general accleleration?
