So about 14psi looks normal. Fitting should be dead simple. Split and run an additional bit of small gauge pipe from the actuator (using a T-piece) to the gauge. Boost should start building from 1500rpm and peak around 3k I would say.

Have you tried driving it with the air inlet to the turbo removed? That would eliminate any induction blockage - just don't drive it for long that way.................

IS the valve timing ok? They will run a tooth out but feel flat.

Injector pump shaft seal? Happened to mine, but only about £100 to get sorted.
