Certainly sounds like that Forge valve then, I had something similar on my old car when the actuator mechanism would stick on the turbo and not open the vanes to full boost. It was off and on just like that, depending on whether it was working or not.

I very much doubt it'll be the map, it could be something sending duff signals that the ECU is trying to make sense of buggering up the map... but that'd do it to the standard one too.

I'd deffo do the DV next, but whilst you're waiting for it to arrive, have a check around for loose/corroded electrical connections, check all boost hoses for hold, splits etc.

If you can find out the type of lube you need, there'd be no harm in doing a temporary fix. It's got to be better than it is now.
