Pipe work to and from the solonoid ok ? is the right boost setting selected ie of position on the avcr is actuator pressure wich can be around 5 psi depending on turbo.

i had the pressure sensor on my avcr fok up before and when it was broken it would not boost. replaced it with a new one and it worked fine.
if you know someone with a avcr as well, try his, its only got 1 plug and 1 vac hose to it, so a 30 sec to swap over to try
