when you release the throttle it should open up depending on what tension you have on the spring. have you got the vacum line connected to your inlet manifold ?

Check wastegate isn't stuck open.

You didn't say in the other thread re. this same problem. If it actually makes any boost? In the seat test.. Not looking at boost guages.
