Not to be funny but we would need a bit more detail than that to be able to help with the problem.

More description would be helpful

Probably nothing wrong with the turbo if there's no sign of wear or damage.
Any smoke? Any play in shaft?

If its not boosting its more possible to be a problem else where.

Do you have a boost guage? What's it boosting at?
Actuators possibly goosed if its been on there since new.
