Sometimes there's an almost invisible split in the rubber bellows that attaches the metal pipe between the turbo and the intercooler. Take that bellows off and inspect it, if you haven't already. As outlet pressure from the turbo builds, that rubber bellows tries to "inflate" with the superheated air being pumped out of the compressor. If there's a split in the bellows, it might hold for awhile and then suddenly blow open when a certain pressure threshold is exceeded. That could cause behavior similar to what you're experiencing.
