Unhappy help, making zero boost

I did a simp seq setup last night and now I'm getting zero boost. I can hear the turbos spool and the bov sound but I get nothing on my boost gauge. I've checked the intercooler hoses and the y-pipe coupler and they all seem to be fine. Does anyone have any ideas?

The wastegate is set up to factory specs and has the pills in place.

I've done that and everything is in the correct spot. Are there any other reasons the boost would not come on? It feels like driving around with the intercooler off.

It's possible that if your Charge Control isn't working properly, you could be venting all your primary boost out the Charge Relief valve (since it will be open during the low portion of the boost pattern). Again, you'll have to check your work. If it was working before you did the work, then it's something you did.
