I've got a 99 9-3 SE HOT and I'm having trouble reaching full boost. I've noticed that my WGA is very rusty and the rod is very stiff. I'm wondering if this could be my problem and if so were can I buy a new wastegate actuator??

I can't really give you any advice on the problem, but I know that they have them here http://www.forgemotorsport.com

It's more likely that you have a vacuum leak somewhere...

It's probably time to replace most or all of them....

Just got over the vac lines and look for leaks. You may just want to replace all of the lines with silicone to be safe.

sounds good.
