Default what would cause this?

got on it somewhat in second gear, about 4k rpm.. i hit what seemed to be fuel cut. wtf? so i just cruised very nicely, and stopped at the next light. car idled perfectly fine, but my uego was reading 11.1-11.4 constant. so i pulled over and shut the car off. everything is back to normal. should i be concerned?

i was tuned at about 70 degrees. so yeah a bit warmer. but last night, i hit almost 24 psi. so that freaked me out. i dunno why i hit 23.5psi last night and no boost cut but at the awd cruise i hit 20.5(which is target boost) and i hit boost cut. i dont get it.

how much boost are you tuned for? My coils on my audi caused a similar problem a couple of times before they went out completely. You'll almost always throw a code with that, though.
