Need more info. What's the boost pattern in first gear? Second gear? Do you have an aftermarket blowoff valve or his your stock one vented to the air?

i reach full boost but when i shift into second the car usual revs to around 4or 5000 rpms and the second turbo doesn't spool up and makes a weird whooshing sound like a owl, I have a blitz blow off valve

Ive had a problem similar to that the second turbo did not seem to work and it was making that woshing sound. Turned out my second turbo was still working but the Y pipe hose was torn and when the second turbo would come on the added airflow would cause the boost too bleed past the torn part of the hose making that funning woshing sound. Also I was only getting about 7 pounds at WOT in third which is why I went in search of a boost leak. Hope that helps.
