Default turbo/Boost question..NEED Help!

ok heres what happened.

last night i was out and about and i was boosting in 4th around 7k. right when i was gonna get off the throttle , it sorta felt like i hit fuel cut (but i didnt) and i didnt think anything big about it b/c i thought i did hit fuel cut.

well later that night we saw a supra heading to the highway. so we decided to follow. to make a long story short, i went to punch it in 3rd to hit boost, and no boost at all. you can here the turbo spool a lil but nothing.

so i went parked and checked all the vaccum hoses, all the couplers and IC pipes, everything is good. i messed around with the rod on the WG (t25) and now when i here it spool, it sounds a lot louder like it wants to boost, but i am not.?

not sure whats wrong? and info would help?

is the turbo shot? but it still spools? could the wg be stuck closed? idk

Crappy feeling, I know. After you put the Waste gate back to it's previous adjustment, look to your FPR. If that's ok, check the connections to the MAF and manifold pressure sensor.
Well at least you weren't stuck on 195.
I removed my fuel cut off setting. But that's different story, for another reason.
Good luck.

If you are 100 percent sure all the piping is hooked up I would pull the turbo and make sure the wastegate is properly functioning. But if you here it spool it sounds more like a boost leak.
