    Sounds like hard Limp to me.
    Noted you blocked EGR when and maybe this cause the issue?
    Why use blocking plate withe a hole _ defeats the purpose. Plate/EGR block may be impacting MAF volts signal to ECU. Remap is the best option (turn EGR function off).
    Normal accepted practice with EGR block is to install manual boost control to eliminate spiking.

    Concerned with 60-70kPa (18-20"Hg) vac at actuator to lift rod (lever to vane limit stop) can cause it to be very laggy (normall 13-14 "Hg).
    Has the actuator rod length been changed?
    Does the paint marks across actuator arm frame and adjuster thumb wheel line up?

    If you wish to continue with VNT Vacsol / ECU control check that it is connected right. The sketch is a guide and the damper can also be fitted between vacsol and turbo actuator diaphragm.
