Okay, I have a bone stock 99 GST with the only mods are a walbro 255 (old fuel pump was bad) a new radiator, and an exhaust. I just did the head gasket 133 miles ago. The HG was bad, so I swapped it, drove for a hundred miles or so on it and then finally I wanted to see what the car has. As soon as it starts to spool, the car bogs a bit, but then picks up but nothing like it should be. I figured it was a boost leak, so I tested it and the port on the turbo that goes to the WGA didnt have a hose on it, so I put it there. nothing happened still does it. I hooked the tester back up, and coolant starts to come out of the radiator hose? I just changed the HG wtf is that something bad again? I just deleted all but the necessary vacuum lines and it is still doing it! Any ideas on this? Thanks!
 
I fixed the broken stud, and made sure everything is on there snug. Car is still doing it. I popped the alt fuse when replacing it and when I put it together the car now idle surges. Im going to go replace the fuse now and run another boost leak test.
