Question 2nd turbo cuts off at 6000-6500 rpm

Hey guys, my 2nd turbo is working fine now but it cuts off at 6000-6500 rpm !?!?

For example I'm in 3rd and push it, my 2nd turbo kicks in at ~4500 like usual but at ~6000 I have to shift into 4th to keep my boost otherwize it cuts off...

It does that in every gear.

Why is that?
Could it be a bad solenoid, wastegate, vaccum hose?

Give me suggestions
Thanks !
Carl

Question 2nd turbo cuts off

I was thinking, could it be a fuel cut?
If it's that, what's the next step? changing the Fuel Pump or ECU ?

I have :
HKS downpipe
Apexi N1 Catback
Apexi Super Intakes
Greddy Turbo Boost Controler (I still get the problem with the controller OFF).
Stock ECU

fuel cut happens at specific boost levels, usually around 12-13psi on the stock ECU, get a fuel cut defener if your running over 12psi boost if the fuel is still good.
