They arent very common to go faulty, if its holding at 3,000rpm then its more than likely a boost related issue, recheck all the boost pipes again, remembering to look for oil
check the pipe after the pancake pipe (back of the engine) they are prone to leak/blow off

unplugged the MAP sensor, car runs smooth and goes past 3000rpm no problems, but on low boost obviously as its in limp mode,  anyone have a spare MAP as tps wanted £60!
