Turbo 13b lacking power

I have only had my 7 for 2 weeks and I have noticed that it seems to make more power at half throttle than full. Motor and turbo standard and is running some jap 2.5" cat back exhaust. Any advise would be appreciated.

do a basic check over the whole engines, hoses, clogged cat maybe, or does it not have one, check the play on your turbo and stuff like that
