Boost Creep!!!

So after a recent tuning session with BDC i have ben getting boost creep. Now while we were tuning Brian was tellin me how it was doing this. Now it seems to be getting worse though.
Any ideas on wat could be causing this. Iam running straight W/G no boost controller. 38mm W/G with pt-67 turbo set on 7 lbs spring.

Not sure what type of engine you have, but a 38mm gate trying to control 7lbs isn't exactly ideal. I'm guessing with that turbo you at least have some engine work done. I would first see if you can even control 15lbs (my guess is no, but again don't have your car here) if not step up to a 44mm gate, it is more than capable.

Yes, thank you for ur response. Me and brian were also thinking it was the W/g It has scared me so i will not be boosting anymore until i can get a new W/g. Lookin at a 50mm hks W/g from Jotech motorsports.
