Its called "heatsoak"
As you drive along, the air passing through the intercooler brings the boost temperatures down, making the air more dense, thus filling the cylinders with more air and more fuel
As you sit in traffic, this cooling effect does not take place, especially if you have just being doing a decent speed Everything is cooking hot, and as a result, the air going into the engine is a lot warmer, and less dense, and less fuel is injected, giving your lac kof power
As you drive off again, it all begins to cool down with the airflow, and normal service is resumed
