If your turbo is the VGT type (which im sure it is), it could be that the vanes are stuck or sticking and not allowing your turbo to build boost. A good turbo cleaning should fix your problem. BTW, that means removing the turbo, taking it apart and cleaning off all the soot and carbon off the moveable vanes (in the exhaust side of the turbo). Just tossing it out there.......
