T belt was redone with correct timing. Upon start up it idles high around 1.8-2k rpms.

Another thing is the CEL is on, not sure why I know the knock sensor is going bad/bad.

When I accelerate, it's good from no boost until 0 on the gauge and it sputters/buck pretty bad and sometimes in 3rd gear @ 3-4K it feels like it's breaking up and not building boost either.

In worried about the CEL, how hard is it to test for which code?
 
You need an analog or analog/digital voltmetre,probes to pins 1 and 12 of the data link connector1 being top left 12 being bottom right. Analog because it just gives a pulse, count the sweeps and that's the code ex. Code 24 two slow sweeps pause four quick sweeps. Good luck
 
Sounds like you forgot to hook something up. Step one, make sure you hooked up all your sensors. Step two, boost leak test. Report back after that.
 
Hooked everything up, the maf plug looked slightl cocked so I snapped it in. Adjusted the cas a little. Still wasn't pulling any boost, and as I was thinking about it. I had pulled the Hotside off and ported a little +1 to you, I forgot to hook the WG actuator arm up back up!

Also, the maf and slight adjustment helped with my CEL. Which is gone now.


Still haven't BLT yet, extra depleted in funds but looking to make My own.
