or spring & ball in controller are rusty,just pull spring & ball out then try but be careful & watch boost gauge or it will overboost.

I can about bet that the waste gate is open. we just had this trouble on a buddies sled. Allen had told him not to touch it when he installed the kit, but we couldn't build any more boost so we dug into it ourselves the waste gate was set about 1/2 open. tough to build boost like that.

the ball was already removed ,that was the first thing i checked because my buddies did the same thing & it was the ball stuck like you said thanks

definitely a boost leak then,make sure your header bolts & turbo bolts have not come loose,you need to pressurize your system

there needs to be tension on that waste gate...

you can pressurize with an air hose and then a low pressure regulator (about $10 at hardware store)
