this problem has been slapping me around for a while know. i have tried with 2 other fellow "greasemonkeys" to fix and still i know something aint right.
basically its my vacuum hoses. i know some where down the line one or more are placed incorectly. i got a downpipe sitting in my room and im too damn scared to put it on before i fix this problem. i have tried reading the manual and i have tried searching the internet for any good pictures of people's engine bays showing the vacuum hoses but no luck :thumbdown . if it was possible for anyone to take some nice pics of their vacuum hose set up (specifically from boost controller to the turbo and up top by the manifold) i would be most gratefull. i also have current pics of the bay that i can show if someone wants to point out obvious mistakes. you contact me on aim at most hours since i leave it on while i work. its jcrewleedr lets not get in to the name i made it as a joke back in hs and dont feel like changing it now. its a long post im sorry but if anyone can help thatd be a life saver
 
i just tried uploading some pics i took right now but the computer doesnt want to play ball. so i will attempt to describe what it looks like coming out the waste gate solenoid. the hose off the bottom part goes to the intake pipe on the back side in the right hole. while the one off the top goes in to a t and one goes to the pipe leading to the intercooler and the other going to the waste gate actuator. thats about the best description i can put up. also the taboo speedshop page is the same as the chilton manual and my retarted self already lost braincells trying to figure that one out. thanks though
 
According to that diagram, what you explained is how it should be.
