you checked at the intercooler right, because i know that is a place that has problems alot. And like dixons said, it might be a wastegate issue as well.

Its normal for the the stock turbo (T25) to drop some at the high end.

You dont actually need a new turbo... thats just how the stock T-25 behaves. It will drop upto 10psi in the top end...

Take off your intake and see if you can wiggle the shaft... if you cant then your ok... if you can then you have shaft play and need a new turbo...
