Default Turbo on the way out?

Hi folks,

Now bear in mind i know little about cars....(want to learn though)

Ive a 95 (M) wrx imported in 2006. first off i seam to be boosting at high rev's by this i mean im almost at the legal speed limit before my turbo kicks in. When it does some times the boost just cuts off as if ive released the accelerator.

Any ideas?

Sorry about the info but if you need more info just ask and i will try to answer

Thanks

id be checking the boost solenoid piping is connected properly and that the wastgate is moving properly. sounds like the boost control is bad rather than a bad turbo. bad turbo would smoke or make noise.
