previous owner said it use to be alot more responsive before he parked it up for 2 yrs thats when I picke dit up,plus I knew people that had the same turbo and their t2's are pretty quick! it creeps from 5psi-12psi

its so laggy and un responsive when i take it u to the rev limiter and pull 2nd it barely chirps!!

my buddy said check the plugs,I never pulled them since I got the car.what you guys think it may be?

so, you are not building power that quick at low rpm?
Whats the boost at 1k rpm intervals? ie - 3krpm 4krpm 5krpm.

with the to4e, full boost should be at around 3k rpm.

Do you have a fuel cut defenser?

Do as everyone has stated, check your plugs, pressure test your system, and also check out the turbo itself.
