well it may be a reality, i just pulled this turbo off a t900 and was fixing on installing it in my car, but after i painted it with high temp, paint i was pulling off the masking tape and saw something with in the exhaust side of the turbo, very near the waste-gate hole.
after closer inspection i found a definite crack in the plate,
and if i had installed this turbo and tried to boost with it the crack would send all my boost through the crack and out the tail pipe.
in since the crack would be as if the wast gate was open all the time.
leaving me stuck in base boost.
so if by all means your car should be boosting, and you know it should be, you just might be right, and your turbo unit sits with this crack.
tightening the wastegate rod arm will not help if the crack exists in your unit, and with the crack the turbo will never ever boost.
i have included a pic with the outer plate on the turbo, i will include a pic, with the plate off.
