Did you check the turbo before fitting it for play and made sure it spins freely with no grinding ? If all that is ok did you fit the pipes from the solenoid the correct way ? Have you tested the boost solenoid with a test lamp ?

The only other thing I can suggest is that you change the actuator off your old turbo onto the new one you have fitted assuming the old one never had boosting issues.
