What is all this talk of spoons? Your car doesn't have a spoon motor.. do you mean to say spool?

What kind of engine management are u running?

how many different forums does this question need to be asked in?

check for leaks in your pipes/intercooler, thats the only possible cause.
other than that, your first gear is too short to give the turbo the load it needs to produce full boost, and it makes it even harder with leaks

Where is the wastegate line hooked up to? There is either a leak somewhere in your setup, or your just not full throttling it enough to hit your set PSI.
edit< glad to know the ecu is working out for you. First P28 i've chipped and it was a success

yeah the ecu kick *** man ! thank steve i don't think my pipe is leaking i pull off the waste gate VAC line and it spoon to 10 psi easly so i think my VAC line to the conpressor is opening too early since the Waste gate is set at 5 psi stock and the piping is 2 inches and a DSM intercooler so that may restrick the boost ?
