THere are several reasons. My guess is you are overboosting and you are either hitting fuel cut, or you are getting spark blowout. Make sure you aren't running lean when going into boost, and gap your spark plugs down some more. Also, make sure you put in high octane fuel to prevent detonation
Good luck
