Lately when i floor it and keep it there, as i approach 6k rpm or so i get a BIG pop from the turbo side of the engine compartment, lose power momentarily, and the boost on the gauge drops to 15 or so from just over 20. All stock 2015 premium auto performance pack on 93 octane. Have newish motorcraft plugs in the at 105,000 miles. Under medium throttle it never happens.
Love the car btw, need to get it right.

Check all hoses to IC, turbo and air intake tract. Tighten clamps if needed.

Thank you i will be checking it out. A quick look at the turbo to intercooler hoses revealed nothing obviously amiss.
