when i start pulling 3-5 psi of boost under acceleration, my brake light will pop on for about 5-10 seconds then turn off?

check the brakes,the fluid is low due to leak or wear on the brakes,may need work or just the fluid topped off. on accel the fluid sloshes back in the master allowing the sensor to drop and the light to come on.

fluid is full in the brakes and the powersteering, trying to figure out if maybe a wheel speed sensor would cause this, however the ABS light does not come on

the master sensor in the master cylinder may be bad. also check the alternator and batter for proper charging.

Could there be an boost leak into the vacuum booster?

make sure the battery and brake lights arent coming on,the belt may be slipping or the alt. may be starting to go bad,i would ctart with the sensor first tho

no but me and jason found some info, the sensor below the e-brake handle can cause it or else the fluid sensor going back could cause it
