Unhappy Inconsistent Boost

With my 87 TII, with my turbonetics manual boost controller, I get 10psi in 2nd gear, 12 in 3rd, then almost 14 in 4th. That's what I WANT. But, the only problem is that on my every other RUN, I get only 10psi in 3rd and 4th sometimes. What the heck is going on...is the wastegate acting up? Sometimes I get a good 12psi or 14psi in 3rd/4th gears...but really LATE like close to redline. It comes and goes it seems...never consistent. Does anyone know how to fix this?
