Its stock except for the intake which is HKS, and I have the HKS blowoff valve and efini y pipe on it. What can cause too much boost on this engine?
If you are saying that you are getting too much boost. I found that I was spiking because a hose in the rats nest was had expanded and was letting too much air pass.
Replacing the hose cured the problem.

Things that can cause high boost:
*wastegate not mechanically connected to actuator
*vacuum line to wastegate actuator not connected
*vacuum line to pre-control actuator not connected
You are probably already boosting too high with those two mods (blowoff valve doesn't count). Get a boost gauge, and check it right away. If it is over 11 psi, which it probably is, get a boost controller.
