Default Is my car ok boost problem?

Bought myself an impreza rb5 wrsport on friday.
I have never driven an impreza prior to buying this one.
It only seems to boost from 2500-5000 and then i feels like it is slowing down like it's holding back.
the car is standard apart from PPP and a bailey VTA dump valve

if the car is standard they boost at 0.9 bar upto 5000 rpm then drop off to 0.7 bar after that, sounds normal.
