if you problem is the same as mine which i think it is, the starter bolts are loose. my starter got torqued down to much and it stripped the threads. it eventually vibrated loose enough to where the starter wasnt sitting flush as it should be. i still need to get mine re threaded but just to make sure it started i put a crush washer on the bolt and a nut at the end of the bolt. you can't put a nut on the top bolt of the starter because it won't fit, no room. gl with fixing yours
when they looked at the starter was it sitting flushed with the tranny? once i tightened mine up, the car started up just fine.
The boost issue still exists and the car still shuts off randomly.
I drove it around yesterday and could hear the turbos spooling this time, but there's definitely a boost leak. They're in the middle of fixing it right now.
no surprise there.. but i don't blame you... you had no other option.. people think i'm joking when i tell them i drove all the way to NJ to MRC because CT had on good shops.. and once again time and time again they prove that fact..
what did they say was the boost leak problem?
P.S. i've told rome this personally.. next time i have a major issue with my car.. i'm getting rid of it before i let any of the CT shops touch it..

It was a coupler that came off. Problem is that it was at a very hard place to reach and took two hours to fix. I think he said somewhere behind the power steering lines.
