Time to start testing...

1. Boost line leak
2. Faulty boost gauge
Then double check the 710N is istalled correctly.
N75 may be worth replacing

you could do the diode hack. its just installing a diode to read x amount of voltage and that tricks the wastegate into what the actual boost is. problem is partial acceleration is very jerky. also i dont reccomend this mod. if you want more info on it lemme know.
