Well I believe it's just a regular 40 and I ran it with a capped wastegate with the Denny t for awhile and boost was the same, when I unstuck the Denny pin and put a new fuel filter I matted the throttle and made 25psi but the pin keeps gettin hung up, so I switched to my grounded stock pin, less smoke but feels like it pulls harder, by snail I'm assumeing you mean my wastegate I'm not sure it's the one that was on the turbo, maybe I should try a wastegate fooler? Idk I'm ripping my hair out

Duck if your pin is sticking buff it with emory cloth and put a light coat of oil on it and it should slip n slide smoothly. Before you get your truck like you want it you will have less hair than you do now. Like billit said check your fuel pressure and see what you have wot driving down the street. Lack of fuel equals lack of boost and hard on the injection pump. My truck will idle with 10 psi of fuel pressure but wot setting still is 4 psi but under load driving wot was 0. Changed fuel pump and its 5 psi wot driving but im not satified with that but ill fix it later. Good luck!!
