I'd be willing to bet that your wastegate is opening at 22PSI.

I finally got a WG hooked up, now have 36psi, can hit 1000* post turbo empty. It is about 10* outside though. I didn't adjust the WG. I am pretty sure it is opening at about 18-20 psi. Need to drill out the divider. Running 60mph, I see about 5 psi and 650*.

If you put on a stock housing it will open at about 18-20psi.

Ive got a Banks 14w/g and before I disconnected the boost on the wg , I could only get 10 with it to the wood, now I can punch it up to 20 briefly. Cruising I'm showing 4-5 at 600* and up a long grade about 15psi/1000* with ambient winter temps,empty.
