"Sir you have a shift light added to the electrical system that caused a low voltage code to come on and is causing it to not build up boost ! .
I was like "WTF" does a shift light have to do with it not making boost???
At this point I knew that they did not know what the "F' they where doing and told them to just leave it alone.
So I take it home and park it to let it cool down mean time I was thinking what else would keep it from building boost ???
Then I snapped to it and thought the wastegate may be bad and not working ???
So I jacked it up and "Bam" the nut had come off of the end of the wastegate rod !!! Found a 10mm nut and put it back together. Took it out for a spin and 20lbs of boost "back in business".

Talk about a bunch of dumb a22's at the dealership !
I mean if you don't know what your working with just say so and tell me that your going to look in to it and not just blame it on the first mod you see that has nothing to do with the issue!!!!!"

Man that is really sad when your service dept is that bad! Shows that two of the most valuable things you can have are a great dealership with competent folks and most importantly of all, good mechanical skills of your own. Looks like reading the codes yourself would be a good next step.
