Default Bug eye boost problem

hi
Ive been to the subaru garage and had the engine diagnostics looked at and everything is fine all the sensors are working perfect. they took it for a spin to make sure the engine warning light never came up again but im still only getting 0.5 bar boost pressure. They suggested that the dumpvalve may have gone. i put the original dumpvalve back on but still no change. ive cleaned the boost solenoid and still no change. im at my whits end , anyone got any suggestions??

Thanks

i accelerate as normal (its really slugish) and it gets to 0.5 bar and stays there. its like driving a n/a car again. been to the dealers and they cant think what is wrong with it.
