what manufacturer turbo are you running? is there a possability that there is an issue with the shaft of the turbo? have you removed the down pipe and checked to see if the compressor wheel and exhaust wheel turn at the same rate?

Possably there is a blockage in the exhaust possably not letting enough air to pass trough, thus creating exessive backpressure. Disconect the downpipe from the exhaust and then try. It is a long shot but worth a try. Disregard my previous statement, only made incase there was a knock off manufactrer turbo on the car.
