It's not blown.
Spark plugs were fouled to high hell.
Found out I've got a nasty vacuum leak, is all.
Drove it home just fine, just didn't boost.
Gonna go through it tomorow.
It was pulling 13-15 vacuum and idling well at 700-800. Just the vacuum leak causing it to be funkeh.
Hoorah.

It's not like "hitting a brick wall" or anything that extreme, it's more like nodding your head foward. The car loses boost, but will regain it, and continue to rev, usually to redline without hick-uping again.
I have it running 9psi right now as I've said, and it runs beautifully, but again, IF I were to turn it up to where I get 10psi in my 2nd, 3rd, etc gears, then it has done this "hesitation" at higher revs, usually 5.5k or around 6.5k.

As it turns out, my fuel system was maxed out (thanks to the previous owner).
Sometimes I would hit 99% duty on my injectors, and if I hit a corner hard enough w/o a full tank of gas, it would completely starve my engine. Thankfully, I never got any of the popcorn noise or loss of power associated with breaking apex seals, but needless to say, my car isn't touching the road until I fix the problem.
This month I'm upgrading to a 4x850cc config, Walbro pump, aftermarket FPR, silicone, industrial solenoids, ... among other things.
If staying on a full tank seems to make the problem go away, something inline to your fuel system might be going bad to cause a loss in fuel delivery (e.g. bad pump, clogged filter and/or injectors, etc).
Just a guess
