car not boosting anymore, wtf!?

driving to my friends house, the car boosts. when i drive home the car doesnt and it bogging out around 2 grand, if i floor it at the right time, it starts moving, but i wont boost. besides hoses, could the ecu tell teh turbo not to boost? if so what would make it do this. my afm is kinda ghetto so i was thinking this may be the problem, but it has been running with this set up for a week or so. i have the afm wedged open slightly so i wont get fuel cut. let me know what u guys think could be the problem. i saw a post a while back about this so i know u guys have prolably had a similar problem, couldnt track it down on the search tho. thanks in advance.

Could be caused by a clogged cat, wedging your AFM open is DEFINATELY messing with things. Why is your AFM wedged open?
