Performance reduction???

Helo guys, so today i was driving my 135i agressively and all of a sudden i feel like i lost power so i look at the boost gauge and i see 4.5psi boost at WOT. I know this is limp mode and no ses or any other light was shown on dashboard. I turn off the car then back on and full boost is back then after 2 min it goes back to 4.5psi. Do you think i need to upgrade my stock intercooler? Car has dps, afe dci, 2nd cat delete, costume muffler, and a tune (10 psi peak). The weather temp was 35°c and high humidity. Car oil was 120°c and coolant temp 110°c.

Check for overboost or misfire codes. Could have one stored without an SES or half engine light, but it's uncommon imo.

When was the last time you changed your plugs.

Question is what are you using to scan for codes?

I don't see how this condition could be possible without a code being thrown.
