Sounds to me like one of your intercooler boots popped off. There are four of them 2 in the center of the engine 2 up front. They get oily and can pop off under boosted conditions. Clean them up and crank them down with an 11 mm deep socket

Do you have a way of pulling the codes? That will help narrow things down pretty quick. Check your intercooler boots to make sure they are clean, tight and not torn. Also look at your MAP signal hose and make sure it's connected and not broken or torn.

I would lean a littl more towards a blown hose. It may be still holding together with no to little load but as you increase boost it lows open
