Car: 97 s14 sr20

Post

Hey guys, im stumped here. The car is a sr swap and im having "bogging" troubles while driving. When starting off or low rpm range till about 4500 rpm the car is super slugish and really has no get up and go, you couldnt tell at idle it idles fine.......

Ive checked the following:plugs (gaps etc...)injectorsMAF (unplugged and car wanted to die)intercooler pipe gasketsThe wastegate dosnt seem to move when reving the car up, is this normal? I was told it could be stuck open or closed? Im lost and am running out of ideas.

Its a 97 s14 with a sr20 with a t25 ball bearing turbo.

All suggestions would be greatly apprecated! Thanks!!

You can tell its running rich you can smell it. fixed some vacuum leaks and some engine grounds, check all the intake arm and charge pipes for leaks found nothing, cleaned the MAF.

Its running smoother but still slugish until boost. Noticed that the turbo seal is gone.....
