Did you do the installs? If you did them, are you experienced and all?

You could have a massive exhaust leak from the 02 or your clutch could be slipping badly. Do you hear any new noises? Is it possible you damaged the turbo somehow doing the 02 housing? More info is needed.

more info is needed. If you are not getting on the car there is not enough air moving thru the turbo to spool. How many miles are on the clutch. Dont miss with it until after the break in.

w/ the megan manifold and o2, you just lost some low end punch but gained top end. try to see if you spool at 4k
