Weird problem after wicked wheel 2 install?

a few months ago i installed a WW2 on my 2005 f350. I have been really happy with the increase in power actually. Truck seems to have a lot less lag and will spin my 35's like nothing. However i recently noticed a problem after a WOT run my turbo wont spool (acts like the vgt plug is unplugged) then after a little bit my turbo lights right up and acts like nothing happened. It never did this before and i havent had my truck out for awhile because of the road salt. This is a fairly new turbo with maybe 10k miles on it i didnt think that the veins could already be sticking but maybe? I also noticed my boost seems to be limted at 25 psi and once it spools up again after it hasnt been working it will hit as high as 35 psi but only for a second then go right back down to 25. I have a PHP ficm tuner i run on hurculese and am running erics street tune. I checked my dtcs and i had the usual ones caused by my ficm tuner and i also had a code for the camshaft pos sensor. i cleared them and after a few drives none of them have come back. Any ideas?

With 35lbs of boost, I hope your motor has studs.
