I agree returning it to stock would not resolve a mechanical issue.
I am disagreeing that the issue is mechanical and I attribute the issue directly to the tune.

Return the car to the stock map and then upload a different new map. Your problem should be resolved.

I had the left 2" inch boost hose blow off the turbo a couple weeks ago, boost went to zero but car ran fine at a very reduced power and no dash warning lights. Check the hose clamps. Bumper is going to have to come off to check vacuum lines/boost leaks further downstream.

Car is running strong at top end so it cannot be a hose blow off IMO. It is the tune.

Couple weeks ago first sign of this issue with car feeling like it was in limp mode. Seems like there must be a sensor somewhere giving wrong signal to ECU or potentially a boost leak. Feels more tune and ECU related than mechanical leak but will see.
Well? Have you had time to do anything?

None of this sounds right. One turbo gone, the other with a hole in the casing. Doesn't add up.

???

Last post from OP was in October 2019, no mention of "one turbo gone, hole in other"

Do you have any updated info from OP?
