When the boost drops off its only for a second it's as if it stops spinning then the boost comes bk on again it does this in 4th and 5th soon as ya near a 100 that's when it starts but when it's very cold it boost all the time ? Or and 1 2 3rd boost just like it should so as I said its as if it pulls on then backs off then back on it does this all the way on a long road

See if it happens no nearly full throttle, , so back off the throttle a tiny bit. It could be the thottle position sensor going over maximum, if this happends the ECU will cut the boost.

Best advice I can give is get your mapper to look at it and they can advise. Your posts are vague and hard to understand so hopefully a mapper can sort it out in person
