What are the ways to decrease boost?

Right now I am hitting 12 psi easy. I have a third gen fuel pump and a SAFC hooked up, but no injectors so the SAFC is kind of worthless at this point. 720 cc injectors are going to be ordered this week.
I was just wonder what methods are there to decrease boost, I know porting the wastegate, but what others and how much boost if any will i loose from porting? I am looking to run around 10 psi until I get that Big *** Greddy FMIC.
Thanks,
Chris

put your stock air box back on and you should drop back to 9/10 psi.

Stock airbox, or restriction in the exhaust like one of those optional silencers.
