I will bet its boost creep by looking at your mods (3" turbo back)

That wastegate is called an internal wastegate... and if you didn't get the 34mm option, then you have the 32mm, and that is even less efficient.

Sounds like boost creep to me budd.

please do a search. But the basic idea is that there is not enough area for air to flow through the wastegate and it allows for more air to get to the turbine, thus creating more boost
