I purchased an 87 turbo and we can't figure out why it won't build boost. We have rebuilt the turbo, put brand new exhaust in it with no cats,air filter in new, changed the egr valve, checked the wastegate (it's working properly) , checked the ecm, did a compression check and it checked out ok. It won't build over 8 to 9 pds of boost. My next thing to do is change the valve springs. Any other ideas? Thanks.
 
What kind of down pipe.
Puck not sealing . Actuator rod too long
Actuator may be bad

Is the actuator rod easy or hard to pull ?
Is it adjustable.

You need to have to pull it at least 1/8" to get it to slip over the wastegate arm.
