Replaced oil feed gasket on turbo.. Now no boost?

I just recently replaced the oil feed gasket on the turbo in my Tenth ann. Upon putting everything back together, and driving the car, I have extremely little, to no boost running through. I've checked the vaccum lines, and even found a leak in one. Replaced it, and still the same issue.

I'm quite sure everything's hooked up correctly, but I'm not sure why I'm getting NO boost. Car's not fun anymore. I needs to fix's it. Ideas?

Double-check the clip that holds the wastegate rod to it's pivot.....the wastegate flap may be held open causing little to no boost.
