boost gauge hooked up to compressor....only 3psi???
I've been having a boost leak/.....is what I thought,
I have only been boosting 2psi for the past 4 days,
today I hooked my boost gauge up to the vaccum nipple on the compressor
the highest I got to was 3psi in 4th gear @ WOT,
2nd,3rd gear only went to 2...2.5psi
anyone know whats up?
I have a td04h 13c / external wastegate /
I tried blocking the WG's dumptube & the same problem...
I have no mani leak or I would here it,
I have disconnected the WG from the turbo
any ideas??

I have tried everything,,,
the boost gauge to the turbo should show all of the boost,
boost leaks afterwards would not matter!!!
& actually its pretty embarrassing to only have 2psi,

thx for the replys guyz.
srry I didnt post up my exhaust & spring...
I have a 3.63 psi spring in it, ( But I have the WG disconnected &/or a boost controller turned all the way up)
I also have a 2 1/4 downpipe & 2" exhaust
I get a tad bit over 3psi when my boost gauge was reading from the turbo,
WG was disconnected
but that sounds right...
the springs at 3.63psi & I was just getting a little over 3psi,,,but the WG was not connected to anything,
when I shifted the gauge jumped up to 5psi & went back down...
