Vacuum lines to (new) turbo control valve all correctly fitted with clamps.
What else can be holding the car back? Is it a case of checking intercooler hoses or are there other vacuum lines that will influence things?
I need some turbo input!!
Anyone??

If the intercooler and or the boost hoses were damaged the chances are you'd struggle to start it not to mind drive it.
How sure are you that the vacuum lines from the TCV to the turbo are in the correct order? Did you work off a diagram or replace like for like as they may have been incorrectly fitted prior to your purchase.
Is the new valve colour coded or marked e.g. yellow to wastegate, red to compressor housing, blue to fresh air.
