Default turbo boost

hi i have just bought a rover 75 tourer cdt 2003 connesuir ,

i already own a rover 75 cdt 2001 saloon my problem is that the saloon seems quicker than than the tourer even though the tourer came with a rover ron synergy 2 set on 6 with mafam on and tq on .
it seems the saloon has a much better turbo boost but a little worse running at lower revs .

ive cleaned the egr valve and tried it with the maf disconnected but no difference , theres no oil coming out the dipstick so presume the pcv is ok
what could be the problem turbo wise , theres no smoke so dont suspect its gone , it does kick in but seems weaker than the saloon

saloon has 53000 miles
tourer 83000 miles clutch s on both not slipping (thank god)

Air filter choked up?

Intercooler O rings?

Look around the area below the battery, for oil misting. It is a sign that the O rings are leaking on the Intercooler. Get the Viton ones.
