Hi,

Try checking all the turbo/intercooler hoses, one might be loose/split. As for the clutch, do a search for what people are fitting and the costs, a lot cheaper than main dealer prices.

Hi,

Your problem may be down to the slipping clutch not loading the engine enough to generate the boost, Just an idea, like revving the engine with the clutch depressed doesn't generate significant boost.
