Default Boosting during idle

Today I tried to started my car and it was running very lumpy and wouldnt stay running without me gasing it. When i ran a datalog it said I was running 10.3 psi of boost. After holding the gas for awhile the car would run fine. The boosts just turns on and off. What could be wrong?

It sounds like a bad map sensor or one of the wires are shorting out.

Yep, I'd guess map sensor too.
