BTW: what gear are you seeing 9 psi in? 4th? 'Cause 9 psi is normal for 1st gear. 11 is normal in 2nd. You don't really see full boost 'till 3rd gear.

Still sounds like a boost leak or wastegate control issue to me. On a 3rd gear pull, at what RPM does the car 1st get to 9 psi?

(BTW, your signature won't last too long around here before people start talking smack about it being too large.)
