My buddy had the same problem.

His problem was that his catalytic converter had basically dicinegrated (Spelled wrong (N) ) within its self and was blocking air flow.
So check for blockages?

Mine did that and it was the MAF malfunctioning. Just adding to the list of things it could be, unfortunately.

It happen to me because of boost leaks coming out of the Injen charge pipe. Yup t-bolt were put on later to prevent it from happening again.

also check the sensor on the cold side piping... if it gets wet from the AC it will cause this problem... a buddy of mine just zip tied it to another sensor and it hasnt done it sense

Basically, if any number (in the hundreds) of issues arise that the computer doesn't like, it dumps the whole system into this mode. In other words... 5psi boost does not equal a specific problem. You're going to need to parse the error codes to see what went wrong that would have caused the limp mode.
