I definitely hope fixing this problem does not become quite that expensive for me :) I had a blocked exhaust four months ago, and symptoms were then just like you describe. However, this time it is little different: when I disconnect a hose that goes from BPC-valve to wastegate solenoid, I get full boost. I addition to that, I'm starting to feel my problem is heat related: when it is hot outside, and engine is hot, I loose boost. Actually, It was in it's worst when it as 34C / 93F outside and I let it idle (AC on) for ten minutes to let interior cool down. When I pulled off the parking lot, I had no boost what so ever. However, boost always comes back when I let it cool down. I'm wondering what could cause this? BR:Z
