I'm out of ideas

Ok guys I've been slowly getting both my cars running.. Trac dog is running like a champ. Now back to the black 86..
It was running like crap,, everyone said it had a boost or vacuum leak.. so I replaced everything in the system.. gaskets on the injector blocks, all O rings, rebuild the diverter valve, confirmed the waste gate is functioning correctly..

So now the engine runs great,, idles perfect, just doesn't develop much past .4-.5 bar boost.. I'm at a total loss as to where my leak can be.. I don't have power either ,so I know it's not a bad reading on the boost gauge..

Any ideas ?? Can a turbo have a leak ? I have an extra one I can throw on if that seems logical ...

Help!!
