Intermitant boost problem, need answers

hey guys, i've been having a really strange boost problem. It's been happening for a few weeks (i use the fd as a daily driver) and i cant seem to find a pattern.

Anyway, sometimes when im driving i'll go to acceelerate, and the boost tops out at around 3psi even at WOT. and instead of blowing off it makes a strange sound that sounds like i have a leak somewhere underneath the car. The strange part is that after it does the low boost thing a few times, it just goes back to normal. 10 psi and a normal blow off sound.

anyone have any ideas on what could cause something like this?
