LOL, I am still laughing about that.
Check it out, if it is pulling as strong as your NA till 6k, then you have some SERIOUS problems. There should be a HUGE difference starting at about 3k on how hard it pulls when the boost comes on. If you aren't feeling a power surge there at WOT, then you don't have any boost. Next, when the power cuts out, does it feel gradual or does it feel like you just stomped on the brakes. If it feels like you are braking hard for a second, you MAY be hitting fuel cut, which doesn't seem right if you aren't boosting, or you may be running way to rich because you have no boost.
Do this right now, literally as soon as you read this. Hop in your NA, go get the cheapest aftermarket boost gauge you can find, put it on your turbo and go for a spin. Take your vacuum reading at idle and put it in here, then see if it boosts at WOT, if it does, then watch and see what the gauge does at 6k. If you are boosting I expect your boost drops to 0. Also record what psi you boost if it does in fact boost. Put all the information in here and then we can proceed.
Also worth noting, the stock boost gauge is useless. Aftermarket in ANY situation here is the way to go. See what the beast is doing, then come back.
Also if you want to get crazy, disconnect your cat and run DP open for a run or two. That will cross out a few things on the to-do list.
