08 cobalt ss/tc limp mode
ok here is a description of everything happening and what i have replaced so far
08 cobalt ss turbo charged .. upgrades [intake, ic piping, intercooler, bov, exhaust]
its been in limp mode since i got it. it wont go past 5 psi and stays at 50% throttle when pedal pushed to the floor [limp mode]
cel is on for the same codes every time

replaced battery
i did a boost leak test and found no boost leaks at all
so i decided to purchase a hptuners dongle and look into it more in depth
then i thought the stock map sensors were the problem so i put zzp stage 1 sensors and did as the instructions say
ECU Programming
In HP Tuners, set the MAP sensor linear to 65.89, MAP sensor offset to -6.35, Boost sensor linear to 65.89, and Boost sensor offset to -6.35.
once done i went for a drive and same issue with limp mode and cels
so next i purchased intake and exhaust cam gear sensors
again nothing
then i purchased the boost solenoids 1 for the wastegate and for for the pressure
and still nothing . im still in limp mode and cel keep coming back
im at a loss now for what is causing this problem... i have attached current logs for you to gaze upon
im starting to think maybe the ecu is bad but im not sure

With a laundry list of codes like that, I'd start looking at the electrical harness and grounds. I'd also recommend actually diagnosing each of those fault codes using the factory service manual procedures rather than just replacing parts. If you don't have access to AllData or something like that, you can purchase short term access to GM OE service manuals via https://acdelcotds.com for a modest price.
