Default @ you guys who are chipped

So i gotten my car chipped and i hit 17 psi at around 3k rpm, and from there it starts losing boost to about 10 psi @ 5k rpm. Every gear, every time. Is this normal or do i have a leak somewhere? I couldn't really find much info on this.

Normal. Read the sticky posts up top as well as CincyTT's turbo sticky post in the TT section.

The k03 is a small turbo, and doesnt flow boosted air to redline or even close.. it just runs out of breath so to speak. that sounds relatively normal.. mine seems to flow a little more than that past 5k but prolly more like spike at 18 and ends up holding 12-13 past 5k.. then i shift anyways..
