Sounds like detonation to me also. (If so, you're on the verge of engine distruction)

Switch to high test gas. (if you haven't already)

If it happens again, lower the boost until you find the cause.

FWIW: I'm having to run low boost until I get the injectors cleaned & the fuel pump upgraded & rewired.
