Engine cuts out under hard acceleration S70 1998

My '91 940 Tubro used to do the same thing. The waste gate on the Tubro had melted when my brother overheated it (no oil). The turbo would built compression, generally to 4500 RPM and then suddenly blow it's compression through the defective waste gate. Compression would build again when I dropped the RPM. It was an old car so I didn't fix the turbo, it was an easy problem to avoid once I was familar with it.
Have you looked at the turbo?
Good Luck
