Or you might be hitting fuel cut. Check your ecu. Is it throwing codes?

Yeah, but he would know when that hit. Besides that, his car is just running and he doesn't feel it picking up, almost like what the t25 does and drops off at around 5-5.5k. The motor just rotates and sustains the speed.
I would also suspect an MBC and/or a weak wastegate spring.
