Sound like you'll need to check all of the basics. Make sure you use the best super plus gas you can get. I personnally reccommend higher end brands. Run some fuel injector cleaner through to make sure they are clog free. Most people on here recommend Techron from Chevron. Then, check all of the vacuum/pressure hoses to make sure you don't have some kind of boost leak in the intake system. Also, check to see if the Bypass Valve is not sticking open or the stock valve's diaphram is torn. Be sure to check the hoses at the BPC valve and turbo as well.
Your turbo gauge on a well running stock vehicle should just hit the bottom of the red or the border between the yellow and red in 3rd through 5th gears. Try checking this stuff and report back.
Good luck!
