define 'not boosting'
is it not making any positive manifold pressure at all? do you have a boost gauge?

how does it idle? if it idles rough you have vacuum leaks

we need specifics to give you the '411'

Well.... Either you have an intake restriction/leak, an exhaust restriction, or a bad turbo.

I would go with the exhaust restriction.
