If the turbo is ok, I would peel back the wire loom of the harness where the cas and main harness come together to about the level of mid fuel rail. I have had 2 9's recently melt the grounds together and grounded out the coil and one injector.

Ok. Here is my thought. It sounds almost like antilag... And if your building like 3-5psi that means your turbo is spoolin. Your just free reving it really shouldn't build boost. So that would point to timing. Have you logged timing to see what the ecu says its doing? But I would check timing, then the correlating sensors. Crank, camshaft. And the bolt on the exhaust camshaft didn't come lose by chance? The one that holds the metal piece on for the camshaft sensor to work? IDK for sure. Just some ideas to throw around.

Im really leaning to something timing related bc it sounds like your car is building boost out of the gate, but if its a stock turbo I suppose this may be possible. What did you gap your plugs at? Don't think its this issue but if you did something crazy....

Yea... You shouldn't be able to free rev and get 3-5lbs of boost. So I think you should check timing issues. If you have truely checked everything one last thing that is possible but not likely, it could be your ecu....

Did you log the mivec advance? It goes with melted wires, but if the mivec signal is grounded, it may keep the intake fully advanced which gives max overlap and basically no vacuum.
Like I say, its just what I have run into recently and just an idea.
