Hundreds of ideas, from injection pump to map sensor to damaged turbine. Exhaust leaks. Anyone could guess all day. Only way to know is diagnose it and that's not an Internet kinda thing

Mine made low boost for awhile and it was because my valves were loose and stayed open. Just an idea

If your valves were loose they wouldn't stay open. And while overhead adjustments being off could cause performance issues, if they were loose enough to cause a low boost issue you'd likely be installing a cam and tappets.

Is this something that gradually happened or all-of-a-sudden?
