So the other day it decides to stop creating boost. I put new vaccumm lines in and made sure there were where they were supposed to be, and still no boost. Any suggestions

Stock turbo? Have you double checked your couplers?

Yup stock. And when I rev it I can't hear my turbo and my big doesn't make any sound.
The couplers by the turbo?

All the couplers. From intake to the turbo. Check them.

Does it run and drive just fine?

do you have an exhaust leak between the turbo and the manifold? have you checked the condition of the turbo? does it spin freely?

check the actuator on your turbo. I had a problem once where the little C clip broke an the waste gate stayed open. Or maybe your actuator is bad. good luck

Post a video, I hope you not trying to build boost in neutral!
Age is not just a number! But you should have checked all the things people here suggested before posting this thread. Who knows if this is a real problem or if you're even checking this stuff. I'll wait for that video of a, 3r and 4th gear pull WOT!

Thanks for the non-negative feedback. I hate when people post in sumones thread flamming. I posted looking for help, not flames. Anywho, I'm gonna test drive it.
