Have you checked your boost lines? There are the three obvious ones that connect to the TCV, but there are two short pieces about 2 or three inches each. These connect the hard line to each turbo. One is on the passenger side under the car, at least that's how I accessed it. The other is under the motor mount connected to the strut bar. That one was a bitch to replace, but mine was severed. IPD sells blue silicon hose and I bought however long they recommended on their site plus a foot or two.
