it wount go below 10 inch vac, as in to, 0 or start to make +psi. ive played with the wastegat alot and ive even tryed unpluging it, to see if we could get some boost out of it and still nothing

1. turbo manifold leaking - check for head interface and turbo interface. what kind of gaskets are you using? sheet metal works well here.

2. wastegate stuck open or wastegate valve leaks

3. compressor inlet restricted or blocked - if you're using a rag to filter the air, guess what...no boost. take off everything connected to the inlet and see if it helps.

4. leak after compressor outlet - check all pipes, pipe couplings, interface to turbo, leaking bov, leaking intercooler.
