so i have finished (maybe) my 5sfte conversion... when i fire it up, it runs and the boost gauge shows a manifold vacuum at idle.... but then when i rev it, it hits 0psi and goes no further...
It is also making a whistling sound (which would indicate a leak?) any ideas? -------------------- ST184R - Project 5S-GTE - Audio: Eclipse CD4000, SW7200, XA1000, SC8265, EA2000 Engine: Greddy eManage, 360cc Injectors, CT26, FMIC, Walbro 255, K&N Pod, Blitz MSTT, HKS SSQV, 3SGE Head Swap, Suspension/Brakes: craftz coilovers, Gen 3 Camry Hub Swap Wheels: ROH Boost-R 17x7 - Times: N/A: 16.73, FI: Coming Soon

Could definitely be your wastegate. If you aren't making any boost at all under load then you must have a pretty big leak somewhere or your turbo is lame
 I would suggest making a leak tester or buying one online...I myself need to invest in one. Good luck with your search.
