Only 8psi Non Sequential

Hey Guys, I thought it was just my turbos getting worn out, but another forum member told me about only having 8 psi, and I thought I would bring it up to see if anyone might know.
Only Solenoids I have still hooked up are Pressure Regulator, and Wastegate, and everything else is capped. The car runs really good, and gets upto 8psi by 3500 RPM, but it doesn't go up to the 10 psi mark. I thought it might be the wastegate opening to quickly, so I toyed with it for a while, and even pulling the hose completely off didn't warrant anymore PSI. I think the turbos just are not what they used to be, but if anyone else has any suggestions let me know. I'm going Single in about 2 months, so I'm not to worried about it, but hey if it's an easy fix. I'M THERE

LOL....

Make sure that the pre-control is not venting any of your boost. I have seen alot of guys here using the pre-control in stead of the wastegate. Let me know.

I'm going to see if a set of block off plates fixes things a bit

I'll double check everything when I pull all the components out, and put the block off plates in.
I'll keep everyone posted.
thanks guys for all the ideas
