Weird boost?

Hey guys! Its finally back up! YAY! Ok.. I drive my FD daily so it rarely sees boost... the other night I took it out the road and drove it how it should be and noticed my boost was weird. When I WOT from 1st I hit full boost, everythings fine, change to second, and notices that it takes a while to get up to full boost and hits full boost at about 5000rpm, same with 3rd only under WOT. I thought perhaps its because I accelerate in transition but doubt this is the case. When putting the foot down in any gear, not under WOT, boost comes on perfect... although, when I do this, I spike and my secondary boost goes down to 5 psi, where as when I WOT, its at 10psi and stays there... any idea at all? As for mods, only an exhaust, pod filters.. thats about it.. everything else is stock... i've looked at the troubleshooting boost on FD3S.net.. still yet to find anything... thanks in advanced guys!

It's probably either leaky check valves or sticking solenoids.
