2000 Audi S4 EPL Stage 3 - Needs Turbos/Possibly just a WG adjustment

I have decided to sell my S4. The car has a clean VA title, clean carfax, and no accidents. The engine was replaced under factory warranty @60k, 01E was rebuilt @140k, now @155k miles.

Some recent maintenance:

Radiator
N75
Rear Wheel Bearings
Speed Sensor
Hella Oil Level Sensor
Hood Latch and Lock Assembly
Water Pump/New Gates Racing TB
Timing Chain
Valve Cover Gaskets
Replaced Locking Pump
Rear Differential Fluid Changed

In January the water pump started leaking so it was replaced along with a new timing belt. The drivers side timing chain and locking pump were also replaced at that time ($2200 service in total).

Current issues:

I thought I had an exhaust leak but it turns out the leak is coming from the passenger side wastegate. This was confirmed by NGP racing, I can provide the invoice. The wastegates are adjustable but if the adjustment dosent fix the problem the turbos will have to be replaced. The car has been parked since March but I start it every weekend and let it warm up. Sometimes I take it down the street to get groceries.

The wheels could also be resprayed. The front bumper is in bad shape and needs to be replaced.

I have spent a lot of time and money on this car trying to keep it good shape. I thought at one point that I would keep this car forever but I just don't have the funds right now. I am looking for $5000. My loss your gain.

What a deal, what leads you to believe the turbos or wastegate settings might be bad?

January/Feb I felt big power loss @wot, I thought it could be a big leak because the exhaust sound was pretty bad. Checked exhaust, disconnected/reconnected vbands no change. Took car to shop, was told WG was not closing.
