Pictures would help alot.Check to see the wastegate flapper is closed and moving as it should.Then start looking for boost leaks as a little leak can bleed alot of pressure off.

Pull the WG rod off the flapper, tie the WG shut TIGHT with some wire, go for a very careful cruise (don't overboost to 15psi or so) and then report back.
