Over boost gtb, cel, boost controller?

[Codex]

Hey all, long time lurker but thought I'd finally register and pick your brains

98 GTB bg manual

I was on my way to hanmer and went to over take, as I hit second turbo it felt like I boosted faster and higher than normal, afterwards cel came on and went into limp mode. I pulled over and checked all hosing to see if any had split or come off. All fine.

After starting up again it was gone. The car was VERY loaded up (coilovers were at their limits ) and I was wondering if the weight and extra power required may have caused this and if the stock boost controller going bad? Could it be Black Box related?

Any help would be highly appreciated

do a CEL check

any codes?

reset and drive and see if happens again

any mods?

I don't have any way to pull code at the moment, not home (aka can't remember how to pull without reader)

No mods, trying to keep engine stock tbh (have considered single conversion but not at this stage) so yeah stock.

Car is driving perfectly now, gave it a good drive and used both turbo stages multiple times now without issue.

Thank you for the quick response

Didn't edit first post I tried to be descriptive instead of going AHHHH BROKEN T_____T

If it is bbod would I start with cleaning out the lines with compressed air just in case there is debris?
