Boost drops off after warm up

1992 300D 2.5 Turbo
Just installed a boost gauge and I was correct. When first started and engine cool the boost gauge shows quick reaction and max between 12 -14psi under hard axcel, then after warms up to 80C, boost and car is now sluggesh and max around 8psi. Car has 161,000 miles indicated and is new to me. Any ideas?

Thank You
Phil
