1.6 CRDI Kia Ceed acceleration problems

    Hello All,
    Ive been trying to sort a problem with my car lately and wondering if you have any input on what to try next. Its an 08 Kia Ceed 1.6 crdi. Im not the most mechanically minded but being trying to tackle the issues that arnt too complicated.

    For a while now the car is pretty slow to accelerate and gets limited to 3,000 Revs in every gear. I picked up an OBDII scanner and it came back with 2 error codes.

    P0069 - Powertrain
    BARO./Map sensor

    P0237 - Powertrain
    Turbo/Super Charger Boost Sensor "A" Circuit Low

    Did a bit of searching online and many threads suggested a faulty map sensor to be the cause, so I bought a cheap junkyard MAP sensor from the same make and model as mine and switched out sensor. Cleared the codes on the scanner and started up the car, left it idle for 10 mins and then gave it a quick test drive.
    P0069 fault code has been sorted but P0237 still remains. Is there another sensor for the turbo I have to check and replace or is it a different problem entirely?
    The car feels a bit more responsive to the throttle after the map sensor switch but that could be entirely placebo, Revs are still limited to 3,000.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Cheers.
