What turbo do you have on it?

Refresh us on what you did to the waste gate. To me, 'drilling the banjo' will just give you a boost leak.

If its a KKK turbo, fill the banjo bolt on the kompressor with RTV and let it cure. Reinstall it, and remove the other end of the waste gate boost line from the waste gate and leave it open.

Boost you shall receive :wink:

Regulate your EGT with fuel.
