sudden jerk at WOT?!

Hey so I installed a new agency power bov set at 50/50 and deatschwerks evo x bov dw65c fuel pump. I did some pulls after I installed them and just monitored my guages for a rough analysis (didn't have time to do any logs) my afrs are spot on and my boost is reaching peak boost, so after some hauls she was pulling hard but then on the highway I did one mash from like 115 kmh to 160 it suddenly lost powers for a split second then kept pulling, it happened so quick I didnt have time to pull my foot off the gas, there was no noise just my car like "thunk" when it happened lol ( it's too early to try to describe it better) it almost felt like a sudden fuel cut, car ran fine afterwords but I didnt push it again, it was too dark to check my hoses my fpr hose is zip tied on both sides but I will update when I get off work, do you guys have any idea what it could be? I imagine it's from my new parts considering it has NEVER happened before, any thoughts are greatly appreciated!

Sounds like you hit boost/load limit. Are you tuned?

sounds like fuel cut under high load. Did you update your fuel pump relays?

It was definitely an overboost situation but I did have the old relay, I replaced it and anyway just for safe measure, my stocker was leaking as they all do, so when I put my new one in it held boost like a champ, everything seems to be in order now, my tuner just lowered the boost, I am running the new bov set for full recirculation, is it ok to have it open at idle because it's a closed system?
