 Skoda Octavia II - 08 1.9 overboost - Bromptonaut
Sounds similar to trick my 2.0 Hdi Xantia used to pull. Foot down and it'd hesitate and 'gag' before putting engine management light on.

In theory you'd think overboost would give more power. OTOH if quick thinking ECU detects a fault and cuts power to limp level you'd get symptom described.

I'm no techie. It's just a thought.
