hahaha. That actaully made me laugh out loud in my office. Really stay away from that dealer, if they know that little about turbos, god knows what they would do to the car when they try to fix it.

My guess is one of the following: loose intercooler piping, damaged bov, hitting the rev limiter, hitting limp mode.
