could be if its the old one, or adjusted wrong, or there is a leak somewhere that you have missed?

Have you retained the small pipes to the actuator.
The restrictor or pill in there is matched to the ppp.

actuator was already on as exchanged unit, and i checked that it half covers the pin
All pipes same, Deffo sure it's not leaking, done these swaps few times now and this is a 1st,
Old turbo was boosting fine but was told had a rattle (which still there but that's another issue)

Do you know what boost it's hitting.
Is it a standard TD04 or a hybrid ?

Right, dunce alert!!!!!!!!!
Hands up my fault.
All my older classic wrx cars the boost pill is in the bottom of the 3port,
My sti I had pro-drive 3 port fitted
The wrx newage has a 2port and the pill is on the hose to turbo snail the only bit I changed as my hose split when I removed, so the 2inch length I threw yes threw as thought the pill was near the 2port well isn't ,
So plus side I know the fault bad side need a PPP pill now lol
