Did you cap/block off the nipple on the actuator as well? Both sides should be blocked.

The TVSV only increases boost, under ECU contol. Blocking it will reduce boost. I'm guessing you left the pipe from the actuator open or with an air leak.

You should have pipe from turbo to actuator (via boost control / solenoid) and the other port on the actuator should be bloxked.

Also make sure you have used the correct ports on the solenoid if it has 3
