Default fiesta mk3 1.8td

Hi, i just took off the turbo off my fiesta it has an 1.8 turbo diesel engine, the turbo had the arm that connects to the actuator jammed. I loosened it and fixed the leaky exhaust. After I installed everything the turbo is not boosting and the turbo is not heard spinning, it is working like a tractor from the 60's, i tried removing the actuator arm and tied the arm backwards again but still no sound of it spooling or any signs of boost.

the turbo is spinning (i took off the intake cover and saw it spin)

any ideas?
