Default **Boost bogs?!??! help!!**

my setup is a greddy kit on my b18b in my crx with 450cc dsm injectors and a vafc hack with settings at -40% across the board( i set them like for simplicity of the post, had it tuned a little different and it was bogging so i set it to the baseline -40% to see if it hepled and it didnt) when i give it gas, right when i leave vacuum it will start to buck and bog!!?! after a little while it will start to boost a little but it feels reall really slow!! just like lag.......i can hear the turbo spooling just not going anywhere! and if im at like 2500 or 3000rpms in fifth gear and give it gas a little gas or floor it.....it wont boost it will sit at zero maybe to 1/2 or a pound thats it and it will not climb neither will my rpms!....and in fourth it will go to liek 3 psi then slowly climb to 6 psi but in third it will go to 7 psi pretty quickly.....this stuff is pissing me off!!!!

what could be causing this stuff????

PLEASE HELP!!!!
thanks

well i actually made it a little richer on my VAFC and it runs great!! i put my settings to 1000 -40%, 2000 -36%, 3000-8000 -34% and its running great....no more bog.......i think it was because i changed my FPR and that just F&^ked everything up! but now its running fine....i love this VAFC!!! i am actually getting pretty good at tuning it!
