car warmed up fine this morning, drve on freeway fine but not much power. slam on gas, boost only jumps to around 10 psi--barely any power. dont hear turbo spooling but also dont hear dentist drill. not coilpack, engine idles fine and not shakey--probably not a boost leak either since car holds idle and doesnt die--or is it? never came across this yet. havent vagged 2 check.

k04, apr 1plus, thermal exhaust, fmic, larger tip,tt injectors. k04 has been 20k miles only, been chipped since 20k.

any ideas? thanks...
