Restrictor pill missing from bottom hose of 3 port solenoid ?
It usually gets thrown out when the pipe is replaced with samco/silicon hose.

Actuator set too tight.
With it disconnected from the wastegate it should half align on the pin. Just needing a slight tug to fit it on the pin. If it's tough to align and fit over the pin it's too tight.
