Does it DIE die? Or just go then decelerate really hard, then go more, etc. Because if it's going and feeling like your loosing all throttle, but the engine doesn't feel rough, and if you keep your foot in it, it recovers for awhile then slows again, you probably are hitting the boost cut. Happens to me with minor bolt ons - CB, DP, Intake.
