LOL, thats some McGuyver ish. Are you sure you aren't Jamaican??
For real. The car is just working its problems out. Dont be too discouraged. You'll get everything worked out I'm sure. Wish I could give you the answer but looks like you've been over everything I can think of or someone has mentioned it.
But the fact that the ECU is giving you 55 makes me suspect a MAF. ECU won't see a bad MAF, and the idle test/limp mode test is not 100% fool proof. OR there is a leak that opens up at boost.
Can you drive smoothly past 4 grand without boosting or does it break up either way?
A) If it's under boost I had an issue with my spark blowing out due to gap (I was at 22 psi).
B) Or it could be a bad coil pack, they break up intermittently when going bad especially higher rpm under boost. Check them for cracks.
C) Also check your timing. Restab the CAS per FSM, even go as far as checking the dimples on the chain.
