I would have never known this was occurring if it was not for me just playing around with the user curves and concurrently, monitoring boost. You may very well not see it with the lower values you are running. Plus, this only seems to occur when the car is fully warmed.

I guess the easiest way to try and replicate it would be to get the car warmer up fully; oil to 240 F (115 C for you ). Stop the car and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Then drive the car and find a slight uphill area, hold the car at 3000 revs in 3rd and floor it. You may need to try several times as it is not repeatable.

I suspect, most cars will not have this issue. But it seems there are 2 so far and maybe more that do experience this unknowingly.
