Could be. You need to check your air to fuel ratio when on hard acceleration. The car could be running dangerously lean.

i don't have an air to fuel meter.

the car starts from the first time and hold's boost like normal
butt when you accelerate it hold's back

a few weeks ago i did ran out of fuel and the fuel pump made a lot of noise ( could this have kill't it?)

It could have. You could check your fuel pressure (if you have a fuel pressure gauge)...
