lift pump, turbo, warranty

I have about one week left on the warranty, and the truck was a little doggy, so I took it in. I measured the lift pump pressure at 7psi at idle and 4 psi under a load. The truck showed a 0234 code, which I believe is a high boost code. I have a bully dog 2 chip and replaced the elbow, so I know why the high boost code is there. The solution by the dealer is I need a new turbo, but they would not even consider a volume test on the lift pump. I also have a bit of oil on the front of the engine, I believe related to the breather. I told them about the TSB for that issue, again they didn't know what I was talking about. My question is, how do I get them to check the lift pump? or what are the volume specs so I can do it and get them to replace it? BTW I removed the chip and replaced the elbow to stock when I brought it in, I know the turbo is not the issue. Thanks in advance for your help
