No 4 psi boost at wide open throttle in neutral, no load

Trouble shooting procedure says I should get 4 psi at WOT in neutral but never have!
I have checked and double checked for leaks but no results! So is this an accurate test or not, some people say no
?????????

Procedure:
Check no-load operation of Primary Turbocharger

Briefly accelerate engine to WOT in neutral, +4 psi should be obtained.

If you do not get this you most likely have a leak of the boosted air. This is anywhere from the turbos to the intake manifold. See Turbo Leak Diagram for helpful hints.

If get +4 psi, then watch the Turbo Pre-Control Actuator rod for movement

those diagnostic procedures only include the "YES" response to each test.
...what if the car failed test 3, or 5 or whatever step?

in your case, make sure you hold WOT until at least 4500 rpm.

the boost should read 0psi and then creep up to 4psi by 5k rpm.
