Also turbine housing is .86 not .63

The tru boost is a very basic open loop controller...as such you dont set it at a particular boost. Just a fixed duty cycle after testing to achieve any desired boost level.

How much duty is it taking to make 16psi ?
What spring is fitted to the gate ?
Is the gate sealing correctly when closed ?

Exactly how is the gate plumbed ?

All of these things can affect spool ( as indeed can camshafts ! ) as well as tuning etc etc
