So I finally have driven the car enough miles (just about 600 or so ) to finally feel confident that the issue is at bay.

The issue(s) I was having was related to the turbo hoses. I had a really bad hose at the inlet (it's early in the morning, so I'm drawing a blank on the name). I replaced all the hoses in the turbo, smoke tested it (I made a cheap smoke tester...blessing in disguise) and no smoke tests (outside of the weep hole in the inner cooler).


No more CEL, and the car runs much faster now.

Thanks to all who helped (mostly Klaus)
