Turbo

I took my turbo out and replaced the unison ring. Now all back together won't build boost or anything like that. A friend thinks it is the oil line clogged? Any help

either it's still stuck or possibly your VGT solenoid isn't working. Did you clean the turbo while you had it all apart?

did you plug in the solenoid? any exhaust leaks? can you spin the impeller by hand?

Agreed. If you didn't seat the up pipe flange correctly on the turbine it will be extremely laggy.

I did both exhaust clamps over and seemed to be better but now the truck sputters still it seems like it struggles to get about 2000 rpm. It also kinda shakes when it won't rev up
