Boosting, missing, and crap.

Aight, well here's what happened. I changed the fuel filter, and oil, and when I was under the car i saw that the replacement actuator wasn't connected to the wastegate flange, on the turbo. So i got a clip, and made sure it stayed. Now that the turbo is spooling right, the rest of the system is all like grr and ahhhh and glug glug and yeah.

I think it's the valves being out of line, because I will bet my car that the guy who did the head work forgot to align the valves. It's twin cam, so I'd have to go through the timing belt.

Are there any tutorials or walk-through of this procedure. I don't want to mess up, and lose my baby..
