Thanks for the suggestion. I removed the heat shield and there was no gap. I saw pictures on Volvospeed on what it could look like and I definitely didn't have that problem. I still tapped it a little bit just in case. I pulled on the wastegate arm and it does seem to stick a little but it would usually return to the closed position. When I pulled on the arm and let it go there was a noise that sounded like air whooshing by the actuator. I’m wondering if my BCS (Boost Controller solenoid) is messed up, is there any way to test this?

Again any help is really appreciated the car is really driving like a dog!

Thanks,
Scott
