do you mean its goes up, holds, then towards redline it drops.

that is the norm for a turbocharger.

When you say you have a To4 , what is that ? A hybrid or a full out T04E , To4B ?.

If you have a hybrid, those are the symptons. You get 12-15 psi and around 5500 rpm it goes down to about 6- 7 psi.

The way around this is that you need to clip the rear wheel. You loose some spool time, but you can hold higher boost for longer.

You have to bring the turbo to a turbo shop. And yes they clip the wheel ( take some material off ) and then I beleive they rebalance.
