Defo sounds like over boost to me, is the actuator working ok? I have known them to stick shut before now.

The wastegate rods have been known to jam within the exhaust covers therefore do a quick inspection around the turbo wastegate area.

If this is not the issue then replace the boost solenoid valve with the old one and see if theres any change.

would accuator cause check engine light to come on ?? ive just been out and soaked it in wd40 and still same even when reving in nutral it will rev freely till turbo kicks in soon as the slightest bit of boost comes on its hold back say 4k rpm
