Default Wont go past 4000rpm without bogging

Finally got my wideband hooked up properly, but still have a question about it. It reads 22.8 right now to get the correct reading do i have to go to megatune to change the settings or megalog viewer? And when i accelerate i can hit up to 5-8lbs of boost i believe at 4000rpm (give or take) and it just boggs like if i keep trying to accelerate itl shake the car and go ba bah ba bah. Is it not getting enough fuel? What settings would i have to change? thanks.

Check your overboost settings.

you did the same thing i did i think. do you have the begi 2554? cuz the wastegate arm is turned up too high. whats your set-up? call corky and hell tell you how to adjust it properly. the hole on the actuater arm should halfway overlap the pin on the little wastegate pin. you still got the stock injectors? and the little jerking your feeling is the boost cut on mspnp to protect your engine from over boosting

I fixed it it was the overboost protection, just put it up to 250kpa it was at 154kpa, went to 15lbs of boost man was it retarded lol(first time in a turbo car) and i have 650cc RC injectors so no fuel problems here lol. But i found another problem...got back home coolant was everywhere, dont know where its coming from looked inside the rad was empty, i think the little rubber piece blew off on the back of the motor, or my water pump is pissing out coolant. Investigation tomorrow. Weird though it only pissed out when i cranked up the boost...
