That is what controls the boost. You need to connect vacuum hoses from the turbo and wastegate up to it.

Unless you've done so already, go aftermarket.

well check your vacuum hoses. It should come off your intercooler. Its black with orange stripes. It runs along the firewall and under the vacuum tree. See if that is hooked up still.
