This might be something i had worth a quick check.
Check your air filter pipe it might have a split in it , when the pressure builds up pushes the air out of the pipe and you will loose the power.
hopefully its this as its a quick fix

First check all the air and vacuum pipes, especially those to the turbo.
Make sure the engine oil level is correct ( wrong level will affect the vac pump).
Possibly choked exhaust, dirty air and/or fuel filter, sticky/failed turbo. When was it last serviced?
Faulty air flow meter is quite common on these too.
