Check for error codes? Cheeck your fuel pressure?

What you got for fueling mods if any?

Wastegate stuck? (What kind of boost pressure do you see?)

a super dirty air filter can cause that

Dirty Filters, Fuel Problem, leaking manifold (excessive noise and soot under-hood as well), leaking intercooler or tubes, wastegate stuck open a little

What are your EGT's like? If they are low,most likely its a fuel problem, if they are high, most likely its an air problem.
