I forget what we already went over on your car.
Could be massflow sensor,Coolant temp sensor,Or a hole in one of the induction hoses.

Feel the exhaust with the car running and see if it feels liek there is alot coming out.
Does it run crappy while driving has no power or a crappy idle after driving?

It still could be a coolant temp sensor or mass flow sensor.

Your tape job may not be working 100% either.Those hoses are under quite a bit of pressure while in boost.It might still be leaking.It would be best to replace with a known good one.Even if it is used.
