Low boost code-- sticking vanes in turbo, and/or ripped IC boot, and/or crack in the flex joints on y-pipe or up-pipe.

Also might want to check the MAP hose for damage or clogging, and or EBP sensor metal tubing going to the exhaust manifold.

Exhaust Back Pressure, I believe on the later models, the sensor is on the driver side by the FICM. Look for a stainless steel tubing going from the exhaust manifold to the sensor. Remove the sensor and clean out the tubing with a shot or two of brake cleaner, then take shop air and blow it out until dry. Carefully clean off the sensor with a q-tip.

Here is the turbo cleaning info.
