Hey guys. Again, its been a while. Just got back from school for the break and I have finished up my T28 swap onto my redtop. Got everything finally done (or so I thought) only to have a significant amount of power loss. Very slow reving in neutral and 1st. Also, I believe the wastegate is stock at around 5 psi but it a tad on the low side at about 4 psi. It sounds like I have an exhaust leak at about the cat btw and when reving it sounds like there is surge coming from the air filter.
Now the car has sat for roughly 1.5 years. I left it with very little gas in the car and today just put in a gallon or so of fresh gas. I also put a new fuel filter on the car. I rechecked all my lines to make sure they were tight. The car itself honestly sounds terrible. Almost like a subaru honestly.
Is it possible that bad gas could cause this situation? I remember back in the day I had a bad cat blockage that caused a similar low boost issue and the surging sounds. Im going to check the exhaust leak but idk, i think there is something else at play.
Checked the ECU too and its Code 21? Could it be that? Thanks in advance

"21
Ignition signal circuit
-The ignition signal in the primary circuit is not detected by the ECM during engine cranking or running.
-Harness or connectors (The ignition primary circuit is open or shorted.)
- Power transistor unit- Camshaft position sensor
- Camshaft position sensor circuit "
