What can cause too much boost on a stock motor?
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
