I had a similar problem with having to much engine oil, my dipstick said a quarter over low so added about 2 litre's which over filled it according to a subaru dealer, it just didn't doesn't want to spool up at all, removed some oil, work's fine I don't think they like having a full oil reading, yet too little scooby go bang

I know what it is go to Subaru dealership at the parts desk and ask for a restrictor pill or I think they call it a orphus pill but anyways you put it in the little vacuum line that come out and bends in front of the turbo and it will boost all the way I had that same problem
