Yup, and again once I see the logs it will be clearer.

In my car for instance, if I go WOT in 5th at 2000 RPM, when boost ramps up I'll hear weird noise from my engine and it was rough... too much load, not good.

If your boost looks OK, then it is most probably what I'm telling you about. I've asked before, and the answer was always "Don't do it"
