Default help running 16.0 @85 ,Need help

I have a 93 civic vei which basically is a four door vx .It lighter than all other 4 doors .It house's the gay d15z1 vtec-e motor.Bone stock i ran a 17.7 @79 .And now i turbod it,i ran a 16.0 on 5psi intercooled 2.5inch exhaust.But i think my clutch is slipping because ive had the car boosted before on a smaller spec ihi and it pulled heaps harder and would have been good for 14's .I cant work out whats wrong??These r my possible reasons.

wastegate seems easy to pull could be leaking boost?
fmic to large not flowing quick
clutch is fcukd same as pressure plate.
engines got tired of boost (80778 miles ,totalmiles)
my car needs more fuel (only running adj fpr)

Just a FPR? OMFG LOL!!!! LAWL!!
seems like your on a poor mans budget.
get an FMU, inline pump, some check valves to bypass the map sensor.. Check the waste gate and get an exedy clutch on ebay thier 125 bucks shipped.
300 bucks total and bump it to 8psi.. u should maybe see low 14's high 13's maybe....
