It def sounds like a boost leak,as your problems start when on boost by the sounds of it. When you rev it parked,your not under load,and not boosting,so won't give the same problem. Check all your boost pipework.

I would look at what has been done (injector seal), maybe the injector has now got dirty and isnt fuelling as it should? Personally I would also check the coil packs as if they are original they will probably be breaking down causing a weaker spark whilst under load hence giving a slow progression. (a 97 thinking about it may only have one coil though not individual like the earlier cars)
If you accelerate gently at 4000rpm does it accelerate okay then? (obviously at a slower rate but is it smooth?)

mine does the same, get to about 4k in high gear under load and it stutters like a misfire or hesitation and feels lumpy under acceleration, engine light was on, may be high boost, mine runs at 1.2, im gonna try lowering it 2moro to see if that helps.
