Yes more than likely. Is the problem temperature related? Like is it boosting fine when cold? They are a common failure and if the ecu is getting a bad signal it will go into limp mode with reduced boost.

you need to do some logs really, find someone in your area with VAG COM and go for a blast as it might show something

I would get a second hand turbo from scrapyard ,the ko3s and have it mapped. You will get more power than the agu turbo.  :whistle:
