i really dunno whats up..
ive sure the throttle is fitted ok, it feels fine, it goes right to the max, and revs right to the limit..
but its ULTRRRRRRRA slow on the road, turbo aint spalling up properly, but if i really rag the tits of it, it does get up to 5psi... i guess it aint got enough exhaust gases???
i dunno whats up with it.. and no garage around my area has a clue

If you pulled the throttle plate off without marking where it indexed to the throttle shaft then that's what's wrong.... as far as I know trial and error is the only way to rediscover where it works correctly.
