Need more information to help, including pictures of the setup.

You should at least have wastegate pressure, if you don't there is possibly a boost leak that needs addressed or the wastegate doesn't have a spring installed.

Putting in into a thread will pull help from others on the form as well as provide a guide for those who run into the same issues. You can upload the images directly to css so you don't need to use a service like photobucket.

Which turbo kit did you get from zzp?

I would start going over the vacuum line connection and verify the function of the wastegate, you need a vacuum/pressure bleeder like https://www.skf.com/mityvac/products...d-pumps/mv8510 to properly test the wastegate.

The obvious question if you haven't already reach out to ZZP since it is there kit? Bought new or used from someone else? More info like ECaulk had said.
