acceleration sluggish after shifting (stage 1+)

hi guys i have a 14 gti with 93000 miles and recently after getting stage 1+ tune i’ve been noticing that sometimes in warm/hot weather when my car goes into 4 th gear (DSG) the acceleration starts to feel very sluggish. this only started happening after tuning. initially i thought it was a leak in the intake system, so i replaced it for the ECS tuning system. this helped solve the problem a bit, but it’s been coming back. i can’t really hear the sound of a leak when given throttle and the boost seems to hover around 15-17psi through gears 1-3. the intake system didn’t come with a breather filter (CBFA engine) and i have yet to get one (i don’t think that’s the issue tho because the issue still occurrd when i had stock intake). any help will be appreciated thanks!
