Default Supercharger issues on highway

Hi guys... here's a problem I've been experiencing for a while now and I can't think what might be causing it (thus I don't know the repair). I'm not well versed in FI let alone superchargers, so I'm looking for some input if you have it. While on the highway for a few minutes and at a sustained speed (say 65mph) I'll feel (and even hear) a slight clunk and a tiny "jolt" and suddenly my supercharger seems like it's turned off. I can mash the throttle and it will accelerate slowly (I suspect like the non-supercharged model) and the exhaust sound is VERY different. I get the sense it's starving for fuel, but not sure what is causing this. If I stop for a minute or two, and then accelerate I'm back to normal and so is the exhaust sound... like it's "reset" itself. I am baffled! Has anyone experienced this and if so, what was the "cure"? Thanks so much, and know that I enjoy reading and learning here (I am relatively new). I have a 2005 Euro Blue SRT6 coupe with 32K miles on it. BoB
