a) Check wastegate diaphragm by seeing if the top chamber will hold pressure
   or vacuum.
 
b) Pull turbo --> intercooler hose and check for metal filings.  NOW.  Loss
   of the impellor securing nut caused this behaviour in my car.
 
c) Check and/or service WOT switch.

d) Check brown wires grounding engine block to ECU and dashboard.  
 
Is the fuel metering head original?
