you capped off your waste gate, you need your waste gate solenoid to pull open off vacuum

Thanks for pointing that out. I changed that before I started the car, I ran the turbo out and wastegate to a T fitting and then piped it to one of the vac on the front side of the top intake manifold. I have a manual boost controller that I'm going to put between the out on the turbo and the wastegate, and then I'll eliminate the hose running to the TIM. I'll get some updated pictures on here soon.
