Default chipped b5 s4 wont boost past 15psi now????

i have a 2002 b5 s4 with mtm chip, full exhaust, and new 710n dv's. i just replaced the dv's hoping they were the culprit for my boost issue. my guage used to spike to around 15 psi in 2nd gear and around 22-23 in higher gears and taper to around 20psi. my gas guage has recently stopped work and wonder if it has any ties to computer to tell it not to boost or something. im lost and any suggestions would be great!! car isnt smoking or missing, etc. thanks

you having any issues with the car bucking or random lost of power? For sure check for leaks. When is the last time you replaced your fuel filter?

20 psi on K03's with an MTM chip? That sounds abnormal and likely to damage the K03's.

My MTM software peaks maybe around 17-18psi... nothing over 20psi. You sure you are on K03's?
