Question jdm with no boost

After doing some reading I have found that myvacum reading of -450mmhg seems to be ok at idle when I give it gas it spikes up to about 1psi sorry for switching back and forth from metric to standard lol. I pulled the bov out of the intercooler pipes and still no boost? When I pull the connector off the top of the turbo I can feel alot of air blasting out of the turbo.. do I have to be driving to get boost over 1psi? Had good boost on twins until primary blew. Now having troubles figuring out why I don't seem to be getting boost. Oh yes alsojust did single conversion.
