Warm up a car, disconnect W hose (middle one) from BPC valve mounted on radiator support. Take it for a spin, but be carefull accelerating- do you get full boost now? Put a hose right back. If you get full boost- it's electrical problem (I would take it back to dealer and have them fix it at no charge). If you don't get full boost with W hose disconnected- your problem is in turbo itself. What kind of exaust job did they do? If they were messing with downpipe maybe somebody knocked off arm of waste gate regulator.
Or it might be as easy as knocked off vacuum hose somewhere.
I feel your pain driving Aero with base boost. Mine is waiting for new BPC or MBC+A-have yet to decide.
