Default Help please - Turbo loses pressure. Watch video

Hi everybody:

I am Álvaro, from Spain, and I have a S2 cabriolet. It was XR3i but now it has all it can from RST

Turbo Cabriolet

I wirte you cause I have a little big problem with the machine:

When turbo is going to kick, sometimes, it loses pressure (and power fall down), sometimes it doesn.t. It is impossible to get a pattern but i adviced that:
1. It fails more often when it is hot. As hotter more fail.
2. When it fails, engine sound changes to lower sound.
3. I thougt it could be caused by old boost hoses (they was so soft) so I changed to new Rose Motorsport kit. But it continues failing.

You can see a couple of videos. One OK and one failing:

TURBO OK:

TURBO FAIL

Thanks so much, excuse me for my bad English and I hope I could help you in the future.
