English please!!
And use some periods and commas.
You might want to check all your vaccum lines first. Is the turbo spooling?

this is a good one for the FI section....

is your wastegate stuck, is the BOV stuck open, are all of your vaccuum lines hooked up correctly, are all of the couplers tight??

Those are a few things you could check...

does your boost gauge read vaccum when the car is at idle? should be right around 20

What did you use for charge pipes? A kit or did you do it yourself?

Any chance of bad welds/couplers with holes in them?

If everything is off of the same vacuum source there is a possibility that your BOV is not closing when you go WOT because the vacuum source may not be strong enough to close it.

I'd check to see if your charge pipes actually lead from the compressor outlet to the throttle body 1st. OR that you have them for that matter. Forgive me if you actually have theses, theres is just always that one 'special' guy each month that slaps a snail on - naked - clueless how it works & makes power.

Sounds like a severe leak otherwise, your vac gauge should be connected after the throttle body.
