my car was acting weird today....

today i took my tt out for a spin, when i did full throttle, the car acted it didn't wanna go right away(like turbo lag)..and suddenly boost came on..and fuel cut and boost came back on again...i felt it's like boost problem....anyone know what kind of problem it is?

i have stock k16, giac stage II, evo vflow, and cargraphic exhaust with 200 cat.

Thank you for any advice...

David
