    Would recommend a diagnostic plug in as a first step.
    Boost pressure sensors can give trouble with these engines, however one can only speculate without any further data. Was the problem there prior to the turbo being replaced?

    its was there ye but only because i got a recon turbo and it was ****ed.. but i got the standard map put on it.. it was d airflow meter.. not gettin correct fuel so car is runnin 130hp in limpmode because of a fine tune since i need a new airflow and a remap.

    The catylitic convertor could be clogged!!! Drive it in very high revs for a while and it may take the blockage out

    I would rather get a new MAF rather than run a 'fine tune' without one,who is your tuner?
