Really hard to say without some preliminary diagnosis. Are you sure you don't have a boost leak? I found mine by plugging the end of the cold side that went into the TB(throttle body), then plumbed an air source(used a leaf blower) into the other side where the outlet of the compressor would normally attach. Fired up the leaf blower (use a clean one!) and then felt along the piping/intercooler till I found a crack in one of my silicone couplers.
Other causes:
Fire ring left off of Waste gate
Vacuum lines/ports left unattached.
Good luck.

If you aren't building any boost and the engine runs fine your issue is likely not engine tuning related. Its either your exhaust plumbing to turbo has a leak or you have a massive boost leak on the way to the intake manifold
Does the turbo spin? If so, at least you know it isnt seized
