Maybe a problem with the amal valve? Perhaps it's intermittantly sticking, causing too much air to be bled off - anyone had trouble with them before? Or a split in one of the thin pipes from turbo, via valve, to actuator? Either of these would cause the actuator to operate at a higher boost pressure than it should. Could be the actuator itself also, split/sticking, therefore not opening wastegate properly.
