So take them off! If you want to fix the problem, remove the cause.

Fitting a FMIC is probably a waste of time at the sort of boost level you're running and won't be doing the boost control any favours at all.

The change to the induction tract volume has probably caused a load of boost oscillation which is in turn activating the emergency fuel cut. Removing the intercooler is probably the best fix. If you want to keep it you're looking either at a remap of your existing ECU or an aftermarket replacement.
