Engine Performance problem
1988 Chrysler Le Baron 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

its a 2.2 turbo. the problem is if you accelerate at a speed and keep the vaccum/boost gauge from going to the boost side of gauge. temp. also affects this problem. when its cold hammer away. engine doesnt miss a lick. heres the problem:if you accelerate hard rpms come up, boost comes ull to about 3000 and 5psi. and then it acts like you turned the key off. let up on the gas pedal so it cam idle and it will stay running. if you dont let up on pedal it will die. it starts right back up every time. i have put plugs, wires, cap rotor fuel filter, air filter and checked timing and vaccum lines. everything ok. no check engine light, and under self diagnostics it flashes no codes. any and all help you can give me would be great. thanks!
