ok im new to these cars...my 03 when under full throttle sometimes will act odd when getting boost. The car will feel like its getting alot of power then it loses it and feels like its hit a wall power wise. what could be causin this it only does it sometimes

could be a number of things. one possibility is the wastegate actuator going bad. could also be tuning related. Some of the MSPs run very rich a/f mixture from the factory, so it could be bogging out from that.
