A lancer gsr has a tdo4. Check your wastegate on your turbo by wiggling it if it moves its buggered.
Dane and Daves dodgy deals and rare spares.
Oil lights are like oven alarms......they tell you when it's cooked
Green GSR.......sold VR4 AMG........sold Grey GSR still under the house.

Check your cat. The insides can sometimes come loose and rattle around to block the exhaust which will stop the turbo from spooling up properly.

Fairly common problem.

it could be as simple as the pin that holds the waste gate actuator arm to the waste gate flapper has rusted through.....the the arm comes off the flapper. It has happened to me once.

If the turbo is dead, then you'd know about it. It has to be something simple....
