I don't really understand what you're saying. For instance, you stated "The car still has zero boost in 1st and 2nd, very little in 3rd, and slightly more in 4th, but then jumps back to the yellow." Are you saying that it does boost into the red in 4th but zero boost in 1st and second, a little boost in 3rd? Or do you have absolutely no boost? You also stated: "When I went out for the first drive, the boost would not even make it into the dashed yellow/red. After driving a little longer, boost would then reach beginning to mid red, but not stay in it for long or reach the end of the red (like it used to). It now feels like a typical 4-banger with a little gusto (no "kick in the seat of your pants" feel as was prior)." This is saying that you're getting boost, but you don't feel it. The boost is high but no power? Please elaborate because I don't know what the exact symptoms you're (your car, of course) having. If you're getting above base boost pressure but no power, then you've got a fuel starvation problem that needs looking into ASAP before you burn a valve or worse. Like I said, please be a little more specific.
