Has your exhaust housing been ported yet Travis?
Boost creep is usually caused by the housing not allowing enough gas to exit via the wastegate area ( too much of an angle to go around ).
If you port the entry way to the wastegate it should cure most of your problem.

I might have to give this a go before it goes on the dyno

i can tell you now, 24mm or whatever the pin prick size wategate hole is on 16g's is when you start to push the turbo isnt enough..


now i dont want to hear 10 ppl say they run 10 14 26 psi with no probs cos im sure you do.. i used to run 18psi rock solid no dramas.

the thing that caused mine to creep like a seedy pedo in a primary school boys toilet was the intake pipe!

Iv got no MAS in my car, iv got nothing to restrict intake flow, just a pod, 45 degree 2.5" bend onto a 45 deg silicone bend straight into the turbo.

that 40 dallar mod alone caused me 12 months of map cut related nightmares, the one time i adjusted my haltech settings to allow unlimited boost the shitter hit 28psi at 5400rpm! i shit myself & backed off out of fear from my own life.... i reckon a rod to the head would hurt!

porting the wastegate hole out & smoothing out the exit path has helped to keep it at around 18 - 20 psi.
